The Fungi world (62) : Turkey Tail

Deep inside the darkness of an old rotten stump, I found these Turkey Tail fungi growing.

This fungus can be found in a wide variety of different colours and plays a great and important role in natural ecosystems as a decomposer of wood.
Recognized worldwide for its medicinal use.
