Iain, Yes thats what I think but not sure? Amanda - I havent used it yet, but might sign up... Steve - Not Chicken of the Woods, I know that one, never heard of Matiake but I'll google it but it doesnt sound too native to me though ;) Sucamore I think?
I'm pretty sure it is Branching Oyster (Pleurotus pulmanarius). It is generally the largest of the Oysters and the stems are often fused from one base and the caps become wavy at the margin. Turns brown later, edible and tasty...appaerently!

looks like oyster fungus, but I'm no expert.
Not sure what it is but it looks very beautiful , do you not use iSpot, took me a bit to get into it, but I use it every day now.
