I found this bracket fungus growing on a dead tree stump in the garden of a derelict house near my home. It looks really creepy! Is there anything like this growing where you are?

That looks so weird. Fungus can't grow here because it is too dry.

I don't doubt it @ScotMac It's probably quite humid where you are.

They aren't the weirdest looking fungus I've seen but they do come close

I don't know, looks pretty usual to me. Just don't try to eat it though

I see something like that creepy fungus at the lake where we always go walking.

I think they're quite common in damp places
