After a 2 year Absense, Bewdley South bracket has returned over the Spring. With 2999 back and this not possible last year. This had to be done
NS 127 is southbound on Nº2 Track by Spring at Atlanta, Georgia with CBFX SD60M 6023 followed by a NS C44-9W and LTEX SD60M in October 2018.
As seen Nov. 1st.
Relocated this Nov. 13 and its striking white edge was dark
The wood it is on is only 3.5 - 4" in diameter.
The birch polypore only grows on Birch trees. This leathery bracket fungus has a rounded, coffee-coloured cap. This particular specimen was approximately 30cm across
Growing on the side of a fallen and decaying log, this Smokey Bracket Fungus forms an abstract covering across the bark.
I think this might be "Chicken of the Woods" one of several edible species of Laetiporus fungus. Visible from a public footpath in Nottinghamshire. The fungus and tree it is infecting stand on private land, so even if I was confident about my identification and its conservations status (which I'm not!) I would still leave it well alone!
This is a bracket fungus growing on a large Ash tree and it's the 2nd year that I've noticed it.
In it's early stages it's an acidic yellow gelatinous ball shape oozing liquid.
I've tried to identify it and it would appear to be a Shaggy Bracket, or Ionotus hispidus (source: www.first-nature.com/fungi/inonotus-hispidus.php)
It's described as a bracket fungus that is found mostly on Ash and Apple and leads to white rot decay in the tree.
Some exceptional medicinal benefits though are attributed to this mushroom as a remedy to cancer, diabetes and stomach ailments and the lowering of blood glucose levels.
If anyone can confirm this identification I'd be very grateful.

CFE FWCH has entered IHB rails at Ivanhoe with CWR from Columbia City. The signal brackets in the background are some of the last of its kind in the entire region.
Fomitopsis betulina (previously Piptoporus betulinus), commonly known as the birch polypore, birch bracket, or razor strop, is a common bracket fungus and, as the name suggests, grows almost exclusively on birch trees. The brackets burst out from the bark of the tree, and these fruit bodies can last for more than a year.
Today I sifted through photos from the first half of 2020 that got passed over. This image was posted to Flickr on Oct. 25, 2020.
Thank you to everyone who visits, faves, and comments.
The sun sets on an old East London boozer, a metaphor for the inept government /Covid-19 crisis and the fact that many of these old gems will never re-open.
Bloody wheelie bins, and the pub is off the vertical, not me !

Ex-LMS Mogul 13268 passes the newly installed signal bracket at Kidderminster Town station during the SVR's Winter Steam Gala.
In November 2006 the Lehigh Line was still single tracked between CP Bound Brook and CP Potter and four-axle power still ruled on NS 212 and 214. Here we see NS 212 motoring through Piscataway behind a trio of four axles...two B32-8s bracketing a GP60.
NS 212:
NS 3528 B32-8
NS 7107 GP60
BNSF 6322 brings up the rear of the UCHELGS Herzog ballast train, as they dump ballast between French and Levy, NM. Bracketing the power are three former Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe semaphore signals at WSS Colmor. These blades may be from the early 20th century, but they faithfully continue to perform their duty protecting trains on the TWC portion of the Raton Subdivision.
Bracketting the exposure, or exposure of the brackets?
Polyporus bracket fungus on the stump of a fallen silver birch tree with the River Teign flowing through the valley in the background. The curving stems of an ivy plant that used to climb up the tree particularly appealed to me.
Likely a new dryad's saddle, Polyporus squamosus
Thank you to everyone who visits, faves, and comments.
It was a beautiful sight like nature's art growing in our old tree stump.
Bracket fungi cause decay and rot in the heartwood of trees and produce bracket-shaped fruiting bodies on the trunk or main branches. These fungi usually lead to the weakening and eventual breakage or fall of affected trees. Source: www.rhs.org.uk/advice/profile?PID=98
The Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, UK
Bracket fungi or polypores are a group of fungi that includes the tough, woody, shelf-like growths on the trunks of dead trees. Some species are parasites of living trees.
Over a 1000 types of polypore have been identified. They are much more diverse in old natural forests with abundant dead wood than in younger managed forests or plantations. Consequently, a number of species have declined drastically and are under threat of extinction due to logging and deforestation.
Polypores are used in traditional medicine, and they are actively studied for their medicinal value.
Not sure of the ID of this species? Taken at the JFK Arboretum. See photo (2) for close up detail of the underside.
Taken at Chase Water, Staffordshire.
Thank you to everyone who views, faves or comments on my photos, it is always appreciated.
might be a rare Ganoderma carnosum ( Dunkle Lackporling ) growing on Yew
I don`t find Bracket fungi easy to identify and this one is no different !
What was unusual here was the fact it grew on an old Yew tree (in a cemetery) and I this is the first fungus I`ve seen growing on yew. Dorset
Other possibilities could be Beeswax Bracket / Ganoderma pfeifferi ( Kupferroter Lackporling ) ? Or Lacquered Bracket /
Ganoderma lucidum ( Glänzender Lackporling ) ? Or Red-belted Bracket / Fomitopsis pinicola ( Rotrandige Baumschwamm ) ?
