Willow Bracket (Phellinus igniarius)
Somewhat common in its natural range, the willow bracket mushroom
(Phellinus igniarius) is your typical hoof-shaped polypore that is found not only on dead and decaying willows, but also aspens and birch trees, such as this one in Western Washington State on the side of a nature trail in Kent.
