    Let me guess, you put this into some computer vision app and it guessed a polypore from a photo of a gilled mushroom because it saw birch bark.

      Sadly no, I typed up the description on Brave search; it took a while because I used common words:

      “Mushrooms that grow on tree branches sideways possible orange color” and variations of without using punctuation and the +/- symbols.

      Now that you mentioned it, if there is a computer vision app you can recommend I would very much appreciate it. I’m not tech savvy and using an old iPhone if that helps. Thank you.

          Got it, thank you so much! I agree with your statement regarding the bark as I was looking at the photos from Wikipedia.

          I’m delighted to see that iNaturalist works on birds as well; my references are mostly books and journals with questionable illustrations and photographs.

          Thank you so much, you’re lovely!
