    Just a quick photo my friend sent me, using her camera phone and torch, of this fungus growing on a beam outside her house. Coastal region Western Australia, winter time. She's been calling it a muffin fungus because of the shape and size! So she asked me to find out for her what it is, if it's poisonous and if it could cause damage to the beam it's on, Thank-you!
