Hi Sorry no gill shots but very distinctive. Fungi is so rare at the moment here in the midlands due to the long spell of very dry weather that i just could not let myself cut this one up.
found 31/08/2011 growing on dead silver birch branch. aprox 2 iches high cap about 1 inch across. totally yellow even inside.

thanks tn.

This is interesting and needs to be checked again tomorrow when hopefully you will be able to get a shot of the gills.

Lets hope no-one has disturbed it. If you go back, double check it is Birch, but a close up of that peeling bark does seem to prove you right.

Hi. Managed to get back today. I am pretty sure it is birch but may be ROWAN. there is some close by. The bark is pretty tatty so I cannot be certain. However here is the gill shot. No distinctive smell and it was going over but the stipe was hollow and a dark orange inside.

Many thanks for any help.
regards tn.
