Spotted a couple of new Dog's Vomit #SlimeMould (Fuligo septica) and a young polypore #Fungus that looks unusual because it's still round all over - from a distance it looked like a bloated fish in a tree.
My #slimemould gallery has been updated https://scotfot.smugmug.com/Slimemoulds/
Bonus round: in yellow we have dog vomit slime mould, and in white, tapioca slime mound. Neither of them mushrooms or even fungi, but still awesome.

A surprise when watering the garden today. A Dog Vomit Slime Mould had popped up.
I've seen photos online but never had one in my own garden. It was quite hot today, 28.8Β°C (in winter!), so not sure if that contributed.
It's been moved off the poor suffocating lettuce sprouts now.

Lamproderma slime mould for #StrokeOfScience "Exotic". A day late, but hey it's done now.
Went a bit overboard with the spores but I can't help myself with glowy things π

It's always a good day when #ZeFrank releases a new #TrueFacts video. This one is 12 minutes of fascinating information about #SlimeMould which is 12 minutes more information than I knew before. Incredible organism, amazing to see what #nature is capable of, and the commentary is as superb as ever.

Prunus - inc plums can be copious secretors of resin, which may stay jelly-like in this very hydrated form.

@haydenthorne If you like #fungi, there's also #SlimoldSunday #MushroomArt #FungiFriday and of course, #slimemold (the bigger one) and #slimemould (the smaller one). It is addictive.π

@foxylad It's slime mould. Something like this "dog's vomit" slime mould: https://inaturalist.nz/taxa/55483-Fuligo-septica

Encountered while out wandering...
I think this is Eggshell Slime Mould (Leocarpus fragilis); we've come across this one in a nearby location a couple of times this year. Photo 1 shows it in its plasmodial (creeping) stage, with photos 2 to 4 showing the gradual forming of fruiting bodies. Those little baked-bean-looking bobbles will turn grey after this.
