Whoa, that's a lot of good fungus. None of them lichens, but still very good. The top 2 pictures look like a tiny Schizophyllum, and the rest are various crust polypores. As mentioned in my previous Ask, I recommend uploading these to iNaturalist! It can help with ID, and help other folks in your area recognize these species when they come across them. Also I love the pubby in the background who is also very interested in the stick. Tell them they are doing a good job, from me.

Super rare! Fomitiporia tsugina observed in Skagit Valley Provincial Park, BC, Canada. It's so strangely beautiful!

Blackening polypore (Meripilus giganteus)

This large, common polypore can be distinguished from its (luckily entirely edible, or simple inedible rather than poisonous) potential confusions by its distinctive bruising - press hard on its surface (or simply handle it and wait a few moments) and it bruises a dark brownish black.

It's one of my favourite wild edibles. Some people complain of its somewhat sour taste, but I find boiling it in water and (vegan) butter and then draining it removes this entirely. It has a pleasant, fibrous texture, similar to meat or dried mango, and I like to use this to make a vegan pulled pork, here served in homemade bao buns. It was my first time making them - they were denser than they're meant to be, unclear if that was because they were gluten free or I over-proofed them. They're delicious as a vehicle for bbq sauce, though.

Hi, today I made a walk in the forest. I found some fungi and mushrooms that looken interesting and I thought you might like them as well.

I am no specialist. I just like nature.

And one I never saw here: Tremella mesenterica (common names include yellow brain, golden jelly fungus, yellow trembler, and witches' butter)
