This is not a Hen of the Woods. It might be an Oyster, or some other mushroom in the genus Pleorotus, but it is most certainly not Grifola frondosa. Google that and see what comes up.

Ahh.. I think it is Hen of the woods. I did google, I could find some pictures like these too. :)
When they grow in groups in lesser space/or in a different region, it appears different. This may be one of the variety of Hen of the woods.
But, I really think this is Hen of the woods.

Thanks a lot for the comment, It did help me get more knowledge!
