Coastal redwood forest, Northern California
Could be a very young black staining polypore, but I'm not an expert.
I was thinking Dyer's Polypore (Phaeolus schweinitzii). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phaeolus_schweinitzii - and yeah, kinda hard to tell as it's pretty small.
I think you might be right.
I've wanted to use this one for dying, but haven't 'gotten around to it', yet.
Yeah if it is a polypore it's still a baby.
You are correct. They love pine trees
