Tilia × europaea - fungal fruit bodies

Hello - these nasties have appeared on our big old European Lime - I'm thinking they look like young Pleurotus ostreatus or am I way off course? Any advice gratefully received.

I should point out that it was a statement rather than an invitation.

Thanks again dudes.
