Sure looks like chicken of the woods to me. If confirmed, the tender edges are delicious when sautéed in butter.

Kindest regards,
Kantuck

It's amazing what nature can grow...:occasion14:

There's gotta be a hundred different types of those fungi growing
in our local forests (like my backyard..lol). Next time I head up to
the hills I'll be sure and snap a few pics of some.

Chicken of the woods, more specifically called the "spring chicken" variety. Name means jack all except it is more prevalent in spring time, but can be found throughout the summer as well. Good eating right there, but you have to be careful what species of tree it is harvested from. One of the more delicious and meaty mushrooms out there.
