Some fungus I saw last year. For a sense of scale, the trunk is about two foot in diameter.

Dryad’s saddle?

Polyporus squamosus. Looks like it from the top. I'd wanna see the underside to see the pores not gills, just to be sure.

If it grows aga in this year I'll be sure to take photo underneath.

Dryad saddle already mentioned, not sure if definitive but if you break a bit off and it smells like watermelon that's another indicator.

A couple of other photos I took.
