Yellow Slime Mold 24 Hours Later

This slime mold certainly has had some developments.
This morning it was high Sun, dry and baking - our slime mold was consistency, dry pavlova! (sorry, did not get a snap)
Then an unexpected rain storm hit - this photo taken a couple of hours later, seems to be producing spore.

    It's great that you added this second photo. I think it's safe to ID it as Fuligo septica. Posted 4 years ago
