I figure it’s a piece of peach or nectarine but submitting in case it’s fungal. It would have been dropped by a bird?

I don't know what to make of this if I'm honest. @Csteele4 do you reckon its fungal?

@Tapirlord yup, that looks like the cap of a native bolete to me, possibly Boletellus obscurecoccineus.
