Chicken Of The Woods Fungi (2) - (Laetiporus speciosus)

View from the side.
Usually edible*, bright yellow bracket fungus, with a texture similar to Chicken (hence it's name). Considered a boon to people who like mushroom hunting and a bane to those who love healthy trees.

*Unfortunately this one was growing on the side of a Spruce Tree which are highly toxic.
