Chicken of the Woods III

Chicken of the Woods is a bright orange fungus that grows on dead wood which tastes surprisingly like chicken. My understanding is that it is best to eat the outer edge after frying it. (I have only tried it once and I did not prepare it.)

This picture was taken along the road between Herring Cove and Bear Cove Summer 1998.
