User's notes

The ACT Government dropped a load of fresh wood chips on nature strip near intersection Madigan and Mackenzie St, Hackett in late January 2024. Seemed to be a mixture of woods. People have been taking it away for their garden. This week there was this very distinct yellow fungus growing on the chips. Not sure if it is this species or another one?
