I found this oozing Slime Mold growing on the side of the trail to the base of Fall Creek Falls. It is easy to see how it creeps over the surface of this moss.
I call this "Bubble Gum Fungus" because of its' pink color. The genus name means "wolf milk". I would love to know how some of these fungi got their names!
This slime mold often grows on landscaping mulch, much to the dismay of home and business owners! It dries to a nasty-looking yellowish-brown powder.
