Out in the oaks today I saw all these cool little decomposers under rotting logs and such. Don't know specifically what they all are yet, but I'm on the case. They are all fruting bodies of some sort of fungus, except for the green one, which is the filamentous flowering structure of a moss.
Okay, not fungus at all. I now believe they are a slime mold of sorts. Still need time to research what, but no longer considered part of the fungus family.

wow that's cool...don't know if I've ever noticed any thing like that before. The yellow one almost looks like a seastar on a rock.
