Wordless Wednesday
I know I tweeted this one out after finding it, but wanted to share again. It was such a vibrant color to find on a log as we were mushroom hunting on a rainy, gloomy evening. Can someone help me identify it? Is it a natural cure for a disease? : )
Without being up close & personal, I'd say it is a lichen of sort. I've not seen one that colour before, but depending on where you are, that might be quite normal. If it was slimy though, I'd say more likely a mould.
