the beauty of C.O.D.I.T

[tommer9]

Yet another amazing and educational thread. Nice one guys. I have missed sooo many opportunities recently!!

This was a larrge ash I tookdown a few months ago..It had alot of pretty rotten F.Bs aroung its base that looked like the remains of either amillaria, or meripilus (i think:blushing:).

 

 

Poor pics im afraid. The hole in the middle was really deep. I could get my whole leg in there, foot flat not pointing down, and not feel the bottom, and the decay went about 6-8ft up the trunk if i recall. There was alot of dead wood in the canopy, which wasnt that 'full', and alot of daldinia.

Or a mushroom in a tree.

 

Looks like mycelium oozing up out of the top of the "cap"

A few from a beech that i milled over the last few days. Not sure what the fungi was, Rowan the bruce felled the tree. There was a large bracket in poor state kicking around that reminded me of a rigidoporous bracket? It was in a pretty poor state mind you...

Was the bracket still attached, Tom ?

 

If so how high on the stem?

I thought flames too. Unfortubately the colour on the pics seems a bit faded:confused1:. The boards are 34" wide!!

David there was the remains of a small bracket very low amongst the buttress roots, about 6" above the ground, and signs of where the other bracket had been at a similar height, although the bracket was now detached and rolling about on the floor. The top of the bracket was a bit like this one...
