Not Id'd this one yet..................

thinking it's some sort of hybrid between Fuligo septica and one of the indigenous man eating fungi of either Ganymede or Callisto.

Good find Pete.

 

Although I don't suppose it's particularly rare, I haven't come across Chicken of the Woods on Cherry before.

Looks to be at the perfect stage for frying up, with a little garlic and parsley

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ofcourse I don't personally subscribe to the picking of fungal finds
