While cutting firewood in my little woodland area my eye was caught by the appealing colours of this small cluster of Polyspores.  Luckily I had my trusty camera (along with my cell phone for emergencies) with me in a small carry case and so quickly snapped a few pictures.  Later at the house I tentatively identified these in my field guide as the Chicken Mushroom - a 'choice' edible.  I have not done a spore test and so must say that this identification is truly tentative.
