So that is chicken of the woods. It's edible (and actually pretty tasty) and a considered a great find by mushroom hunters.

Here's some image links to back that ID up:

mycological societies also have links for recipes on how to prepare chicken of the woods, if you are interested. there's also a massachusetts chapter if you're curious to know more.
