That looks like 'Chicken' mushroom. Two varieties, both edible (don't take my word for it)..............

Do you burn Willow?I cut into the new willow scrounge....
The spanking threads as well as the “imbilesiles” posts were deleted unfortunately.I've been reading the chronicles of gunny today. Very entertaining.
Do you burn Willow?
I burn it mixed in with my good hardwood, Black Locust, Maple and oak this year. Sell around 8 cord/yr $120/cord.
I figure that with the cost of fuel and amortization of equipment I lose money on every cord I sell even figuring my time isn't worth anything. I do it mostly for something to do and I enjoy the work.
I did heat my house with nothing but willow for about 30 years, lowest per btu wood available out here at the time until the locust borer moved in and killed the locust by the acre back in the 90s.
Does anyone have an email address for him? Or know if he’s on Facebook? I guess the good thing is, there is no way to voluntarily delete your account here. Maybe after a time he’ll reconsider.

Good to see you back into it.
I've burned willow. Took some from a guy as a favor, he gives me a lot of good wood too. There's a pile of water in it so it takes forever to dry. I heated last October/November exclusively with willow and it did great. Burns hot but quickly, enough to heat the stove up and doesn't go volcanic all night.

When I had some I found it really hard to split and learnt why cricket bats are made from it. It can be very elastic, it was like hitting a large block of rubber with the maul.
