This image presents a close-up view of several pleurotoid mushrooms, specifically **Lentinellus castoreus**, growing on the underside of an oak log in Lick Creek Park, College Station, Texas. The photograph was taken on May 2, 2023.

**Mushroom Characteristics**

The mushrooms are light tan or beige in color and exhibit a fan-shaped cap with wavy edges. They grow close together, covering most of the exposed surface area of the log. Some mushroom caps have partially broken off from their stems.

**Log Appearance**

The log is dark brown and appears to be rotten due to the extensive growth of mushrooms on its underside. The bark has fallen away from some areas, revealing the rough wood beneath. There are small amounts of dirt scattered around the mushrooms.

**Background**

There is no background visible in this image as it is a close-up shot focusing solely on the mushrooms and log. – AI vision
