A Fungus Among Us


Found growing on a tree root in our backyard!
Must identify.
Update: I forgot to mention this thing is about 10 inches in diameter!

Wow that's an amazing thing to find growing in your backyard! Yikes...did you find out what it was exactly? And what is that slimyness on top? Hey thanks for posting your blog on my etsy thread: http://www.etsy.com/forums_thread.php?thread_id=5646645&page=4

Have a great remainder of the week!

Wow, this looks really interesting! But I would prefer not eating it...

Ew......I'm not a fungus fan. Good luck identifying.

Not sure what that is either, I can't find it in my book. I would try to though. Bigger is better!
