I found this mushroom growing on the side of a log I got from my neighbor that I have been using as a table/seat for my fire pit (not sure the type of wood likely poplar or some other tree that has about a 30yr life span). I've had the logs 2-2.5 years. This is the first significant mushroom growth I've had - we have had a drout the last 2 years and we have had limited fires so the logs are fairly stationary. We have gotten rain recently. I live in south east Wisconsin (east Troy to be exact) my plant identification app says it's an oyster mushroom but does not get more specific. Looking for a clear identification and if it is edible. I broke one off and flipped it so the gills could be seen. There are PLENTY of bugs in the gills right now.
Additionally and MOST importantly is this toxic to waterfowl. I own ducks and I know the dumbies will nip at them given the chance.
Thanks in advance
