On a tree stump by a Buddhist centre in Herefordshire, UK I saw these bracket fungi providing some shelter for a resident

It's nowhere near autumn here in the UK
(but fongi don't really need a specific time of year to do their thing)

If anyone know what these are, I'd be interested

This one was tiny.
You get a sense of the scale from the fronds of moss growing on this Oak trunk.
The cap is barely 2-3mm wide

Lens distortion is from my cameraphone.

Parasol mushrooms.
This is the best moment to eat them, when the cap is not already open. Better to avoid the stipe, tougher to chew.
Nevertheless, the open cap, if not too old, is good barbecued.
