Turkey Tail (Trametes versicolor) is a common bracket or shelf fungus, which grows on the sides of logs or trees. Unlike a mushroom, it is a fungus that has no stalk. It feels leathery to the touch.

Turkey Tail has a spoon or cup shape, up to four inches wide, and it is very colorful, ranging from brown, white, tan, orange, red, or purple, and sometimes all these colors at once. Turkey Tail caps often overlap each other.

Thanks for the info. I see a lot of them as you described. Now I know what they really are. Learn something new every once in a while and even often....Rich
