Got to the office this morning, these were growing on the maple outside. Pretty sure they're oysters just don't know the genus.

Look like Oysters to me (Pleurotus). But these appear to be past prime, possibly frozen/thawed and now rapidly decomposing. Quite a flush of Oysters down there in W VA.

Dave you would be correct in that they are 'aged' ... :) I retired July 31 but go in and cover a shift now and then and keep up with things. I hadn't been to the office for several days at all. Right about the flush too. Oysters seem to be popping out everywhere. I couldn't be happier. They really are delicious and this spurt of sightings has brightened my winter time gloom immeasurably.

Yup, looks like Oysters. Keep an eye out for when they come out again to identify correctly.

Thanks Cedric. I'll check that maple anytime I pass it now. Hope there's another spurt of growth. It's been really cold for several days now. I don't expect much.
