Weird to look at, very sharp and prominent, almost looks like its just been painted on. Smart though.

What wood is that? Oak? I'm guessing it has been down a while?

Yep oak, been sitting about 4 years I think.

Found a few bits over the last couple of days.. first two are growing from an old beech log, next three are on an old spruce stump, two from a multistem cherry, a very small lilac stem with dusty little ring around the stem and sumfink on the chip pile, I don't know if there is anything to be excited about but some positive id would be great!

Think you're looking at 

Trametes versicolor 

Phaeolus schweinitzii on the stump

Ganoderma sp on the cherry

Brefeldia maxima on the twig

and something like Otidea onotica on the mulch

Thank you! I've read a good few of your posts over the years, I like the balance of knowledge and humour. About time I started learning what I'm looking at, thanks again for the quick response.
