The first picture is from a couple of weeks ago-- A fungus we'd never seen before. It turns out to be a very young Varnished Conc (Ganoderma Lucidum). They are a shelf fungus that will eventually be several inches across. I decided to name it "Carl the Conc" and keep watching as it grows.
The picture below is from Thursday. After just a couple of weeks, the "shelf" has become about 5 times bigger.
Go for it Carl! I'll get another picture in a couple of weeks. Oh yes-- see the tiny little mushroom in the lower right of the newer picture?

ah oui c'est très intéressant de voir la croissance de ces champignons. c'est même fascinant
It certainly looks like half cooked egg
Ciertamente curioso
Como apenas visito el campo, no puedo apreciar la vista de los preciosos hongos.
Muy buenas fotografías.
