Finally the Weekend, small walk in family in search of interesting topic.

Fruition: gelatinous, orange yellow to orange, starting by an irregular drop coming out of wood, taking the shape of a mass pétaloïde or lobée, finally turning into a heap cérébriforme capable to reach until 6 cm of span, fixed to the substratum by a white basis, radicante, then,; to tenacious gelatinous flesh, becoming softer with age.

Spores: cylindrical, arched weakly, smooth, hyalines, 7-9 septées, 17-25 x 6-8 µms. Orange Sporée.

Habitat: Lone or in groups on the wood of dead conifers, very frequent on the section cut of dejected and abandoned conifers in forest, of July to October. Common

Edibility: Edible, but rather flavorless one says.

...Et vous en avez trouver un, semble-t-il! En ce qui me concerne, je préfère les oiseaux aux champignons, probablement parce que je ne me suis pas encore 'penché' sur le sujet...
Bonne composition et excellent point de vue, Christophe. Un peu de difficulté à gérer la lumière, peut-être, mais dans l'ensemble une bonne photo.
Belle promenade!
Merci

Amazing colors,very well seen and nicely captured witha great composition,I like it,Christophe,also ligfht very well managed,and the result is fine,good note,too,Thanks for sharing.

Christophe, you made a nice post, with a beautiful composition and plenty of detail, I like it very much.
I am afraid though that you dont have the right ident, the Orange Jelly or Orange Witches' Butter is orange, as the name describes, and is the Tremella mesenterica, this look much more like the Ascocoryne sarcoides, I made a post some days ago called "purple waves" which also has a link to one posted by Paul. Have a look and tell me what you think. Greetings.

Hi Christophe, I agree with Felipe on the ID. Nice picture, good colours but maybe a little soft in focus. Very well done.
