Does not match speceis in area that look like horse shoes. This one is rather large and the above mushroom in black is strange.
Seems to be well dead red beech.

Strange oyster this one. From an area where many people through time came on ships. I would say this Is different to anything I’ve ever seen. The universe was playing tricks again, went out to the beech and this log was lying on the road on the way back.

thankyouDescription
This is the strangest fungi I ever have seen.
I thought this was insect egg but nope it was definitely fungi.
Had like a slime over it and when dirt spilled on it slime moved to one side and started dripping off.
