"Corals" on a long dead log

It was found in the woods and the unattractive dead log was lying on the ground. Nobody knew underneath it was a bunch of pretty yellow "mushrooms". Do you think they are just fungus? I figured they sprouted after a heavy downpour the day before.

An interesting find. Spores sprouting in a short time after a rain sometimes produce very interesting colors and forms. Nice photo.

Beautiful. I love the many different shapes that mushrooms take. Some of my favorites are the Corals, Stinkhorns, and Bird's-Nest Fungi.

 

I agree with Frank, although I think you could also enlarge the photo and frame it--artwork!
Such an interesting growth form. Good for you for finding it.

 

I swear that had Songlim18 not told us exactly what it was - I'd have said that it's a picture taken from a microscope.

So this indeed is a very interesting find!

 

Great photo.

 

very pretty, and unusual!

 

Very eye catching indeed,..they remind me of Sea Anemone.

 

should visit the woods more often, especially after a rain and will leave no log unturned.

 

Yes I agree. Some are like little umbrellas.

 

Great shot. I have 211 different fungi images now.
