Description
I came across this really strange yellow fungus this morning that was growing on a rotting stump, never seen one like it before.Related content

If this had been a photograph taken in England, that would be a Cauliflower fungus, which is pretty damned tasty! I'm not sure if there are similar looking but poisonous fungi in the States though.
Stunning photo all the same

It could be that but I'm not willing to try it.
The next morning it was just a brown glob.

I have seen it but usually just after a heavy rain in warm weather.

This shot was taken in April, may have been after a rain I don't remember, and is maybe 100 yards from the river. It can be damp there where it was and it probably was.
