New fungus

in #photography9 years ago

New to me, that is; I found this red, spongy blob on dead birch wood next to some more common mushrooms:


Olympus Stylus 1s, 42mm, ISO200, f4, 1/80s

Does anybody know what it could be? I can't seem to find it in the books.

Sort:  

It might be a slime mold. Those things are weird and they can even move. Wikipedia has an article about them.

Could well be, I made some posts about them earlier. Weird thing indeed. It's a good thing they move only slowly 8-).

I like it, i'm upvote and resteem your post

Great shot!

Wonderful macro!
