Common Puffball
Meerdalbos, Belgium (Oct 2014).
An old-faithful in our woods here they show up every fall. They are white, covered in short spiny bumps. When mature they become brown, and a hole in the top opens to release spores in a burst when the body is compressed by touch or falling raindrops.

"Lycoperdon perlatum", popularly known as the common puffball, warted puffball, gem-studded puffball, or the devil's snuff-box, is a species of puffball fungus in the family Agaricaceae.
