Thanks Sarah. It is amazing how small these can be.
Dan, this looks like Turkey Tail also, just another variety. It really is tiny. I am fascinated with fungus & lichens. Recently, while horseback riding in the Wayne National Forest (Ohio), I spotted Turkey Tail & pointed it out to my sister. She thought it was lichens. Yeah, well so did I a few months ago....before I met Noah!! :)
