It's a little hard to see, but this is an interesting grouping. The tiny little bubbles of a yellow-tan fungus appear at top. The woodpecker holes indicate that the tree is dying (always a sign, even if it still looks healthy). At the branch's base are a couple of really weird fungal growths, nearly black with raised gray speckles all over. A dead and shriveled black leaf hangs from the twig, and just below it on the bark is a third (black) fungus, much smaller and knobbier than the grayish branch growths.

Where are these photos from?: These are photos I took in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia.
