Tree Fungi

Taking a walk along the Ridgeway National Trail near Tring Park in 2016 I stumbled across this very distinctive tree at the side of the path. I noticed how well established and healthy the fungi consuming this dying tree had become, feeding off the decaying trunk and protruding from behind the bark. I felt this was an excellent example of the cycle of nature where as one organism dies, another takes it place and is nourished from the decaying matter.
