Could not get very close as it was overhanging above a pond but I was wondering what the species is.

Posted Image, I also thought I could use it in the spotting challenge.

Hi Alice.

They are called Daedaleopsis confragosa (Blushing Bracket fungus) and can be highly variable in colouration.

It would also be fine to use for your challenge.

Is it possible to ID this fungi? Seen today - there was a pile of logs with some turkeytail next to it. Not sure what the base soil would be but it looks quite rich from all the dead leaves - this was growing through the soil rather than on the logs.

Willow and Poplar in the area and looks like oak leaves there in the picture.

Hi Grayling

Looks like Cortinarius type to me. I'll have a look through my guides but i think spore print and microscopy might be required to tie down an exact id.
