This valley oak, in the Chinese Camp area, is showing signs of a possible canker rot infection. The bark is bursting in numerous locations on the main bole. Overall, the tree looks healthy, with new leaf growth, and fullness in foliage. The tree has extensive sapsucker holes. A small swimming pool was constructed nearby.

2 August 2018.  Thanks to Dr. Ted Swiecki of phytosphere.com for help with the ID.

Dr. Swiecki states “In canker rots, the decay column extends out to the cambium in some places, causing a localized canker that can callus over, especially if the tree is otherwise vigorous.  ”

Not fully sure, but we believe this is dog vomit slime mold, dripping from the eaves of this house. Photos by Jon Shattuck, September 2017.

Josh Esposito took these photos, and collected the samples, of what might appears to be white fungus on a beam.
