Slime molds are so weird and cool. This is some sort of Stemonitis, which I found near Cultus Lake.

I went hiking with my kids yesterday. We saw excellent mushrooms and slime molds.

Common Coral Slime Mold, aka White-Fingered Slime, Ceratiomyxa fruticulosa. On well-rotted log in deep rainforest. New blog post: https://wanderinweeta.blogspot.com/2026/07/cool-enough.html #VancouverIsland #SlimeMold #Mycology #NaturePhotography
There is the most amazing blue stuff growing on my very old branches on a neglected and damp woodpile (slime / algae / moss / lichen?). I’ve never seen anything quite like it! (Northern Tuscany, Italy 🇮🇹 ) Not ideal for burning & heating my old house, but aesthetically pleasing.
EDIT: huge thanks to @ak_text@mastodon.social who tells me this is a cobalt crust fungus (Terana caerulea), aka “velvet blue spread”. And very pretty it is too.

Think pink! Another beautiful stemonitis, growing on a needle. If you look carefully, you can see further fine "hair" starting to grow on the other needle (to the left). Same species? You tell me.
