Coral slime mold! 》 Ceratiomyxa fruticulosa

Featuring a smooth land slug, genus Deroceras, enjoying a coral slime breakfast.

Found out on the trails while foraging for wild onions! I've seen pictures of this genus on my dash but this was my first time encountering it in person!

me when i unleash sand and dust and particles upon the world

this boiled egg growing out of a dead tree is a slime mold called a false puffball (Reticularia lycoperdon). i don't get to see slime molds often at all so i was pretty happy about it. the video was taken a couple of days later, after it started cracking and releasing spores, and it ended with my thumb covered in shit, so i can't say i recommend the experience

I think this is honeycomb coral slime mold (ceratiomyxa fruticulosa), but my slime knowledge is nowhere near where I'd like it to be.

Feed Me Oat Flakes

Bref double poem

I am plasmodial slime mold I am just a single cell. My name is Jerry, feed me I like to eat the oat flake.

I move on the forest floor I expand in search of food I am Jerry, squishy gold, Looking for oats to uptake.

No oat flake means I make spore I spread spores in the wind To make new Jerrys and grow Finding new oat flake to take.

Small Jerrys fuse, taking hold Of the entire oat flake store.

!!!!! Salmon eggs!!! 》 Trichia decipiens

AAAHHHHH. MY FIRST TRICHIA.

Sorry for yelling, I just. This is my second consecutive first ID of a highly anticipated genus! Yesterday I found my first bird nest fungus and now! My first trichia slime mold!! I am a very happy camper. :') ❤️

Regretably, I did not have my DSLR with me on this excursion, but if I have the time I may return with it tomorrow. Just look at that lovely color! 😭🙏
