    Difficult to be certain from a photo, but they look like the woody bracket fungi most common on living trees. I have to say, they have a distinct look of oyster mushrooms, which you pay through the nose for in a supermarket. If it was me, I’d pick some. The tree looks like member of either poplar or willow family. What is it?

    Sorry, I should have said “they DON’T look like the woody bracket fungi most common on living trees”.

    The tree was a horse chestnut, I think.
