My guess is Inonotus dryadeus

I don't think it is as you tend to get that more on oak and it would probably be dark brown as it decomposes during winter (if the photo is uptodate) 

 

Are you sure its not expanding foam? Some one maybe has filled up cavities in the tree?

Fair enough, I misread the post and thought it said Oak. DOH!

Expanding foam is a good option.

Interestingly enough, according to the Arb assoc "Fungi on Trees" dyradeus can very occassionally be found on beech - So I have learnt something new today!

Photo was taken in December. Doubt its expanding foam as the other locations are much further up and not on cavities.
