Turkey Tail
(lemmy.world)
Was walking through the woods today and saw these mushrooms growing on a fallen tree. I thought they looked very pretty.
Never tried to ID a mushroom outside a grocery store before, but it looks like turkey tail.
Those aren't mushrooms, they're conks
All conks are mushrooms.
Thank you for clarifying. That was my takeaway from reading the polypores Wikipedia article.
Conks are all mushrooms, but not all mushrooms are conks.
Neat, I hadn't heard that term before. I'll have to read more about them.
On a convenient note, the wiki for polypores had a pic of the orange "mushroom" I had found.
