Found in the woods on my property

Anyone know what type of mushroom this is. It is about 14 inches across and looks like a flower.

It is growing at the base of an oak tree about 20 inches across.

Oyster mushroom.

Poisonous?

 

[Ken King]

Cool, so out here it would be a mountain oyster mushroom.

I'm not sure how much I'd trust wikipedia about selecting edible fungi.

Wiki says edible.

Yes and delicious.

 

[glhs837]

Yeah, Wiki says that the lions mane I found in the front yard forest a few years back was edible. Yeah, not gonna go with that...

Mushroom walks in to a bar. Bartender sez "we don't serve your kind here". Mushroom sez.."What??..why not?..I'm a fun guy.."

Oyster mushroom.

Best served with cocktail sauce and lemons.

Oyster mushroom.

Just found out it is a white pore chicken of the woods or Laetiporus Cincinnatus. Edible and tastes like chicken (so they say).

 

[GWguy]

Yeeeeaaaahhhhhh...... a lot of things are supposed to taste like chicken.



They lie.
