Chicken in a tree

I noticed some Chicken of the woods about 3m up an Oak amongst the stands of Camel Green. Last year these woods were full of Chicken of the woods, on one walk I counted 11 or more good sized specimens; not so this year though, this young clump is the only specimen I've spied in a while.  I didn't collect any, too young and there's plenty of time (as long as anyone else doesn't see it) for it to get bigger. Still though, I wanted to see if it was get-able and so, using the Ivy which clings to the tree, I climbed up to a position where I could have collect some. It's good to practice.
