Fuligo septica, or Dog Vomit Slime Mold (some prefer Scrambled Egg Slime Mold) on rotting wood.
In the Anacortes Community Forest Lands.
Shows up on rotting wood a while after a rain this time of year.

Previous photo was taken later using a macro lens and focus stacked.
Seen on the stump in the forest. It was easy to see because of it's bright colour :)
Scrambled egg slime (Fuligo septica) is a species of plasmodial slime mold, and a member of the Myxomycetes class. Slime molds were formerly classified as fungi but are no longer considered part of that kingdom. Although not forming a single monophyletic clade, they are grouped within the paraphyletic group referred to as kingdom Protista. Many slime molds, mainly the "cellular" slime molds, do not spend most of their time in this state. When food is abundant, these slime molds exist as single-celled organisms. When food is in short supply, many of these single-celled organisms will congregate and start moving as a single body. They feed on microorganisms that live in any type of dead plant material. They contribute to the decomposition of dead vegetation, and feed on bacteria, yeasts, and fungi. For this reason, slime molds are usually found in soil, lawns, and on the forest floor, commonly on deciduous logs. Fuligo septica's plasmodium may be anywhere from white to yellow-gray It is common with a worldwide distribution, and it is often found on bark mulch in urban areas or woodlands after heavy rain or excessive watering. Their spores are produced on or in aerial sporangia and are spread by wind.

Żółty śluzowiec na pniaku w lesie. Rzucał się w oczy tym swoim jaskrawym kolorem :)
Wykwit piankowaty (Fuligo septica) – gatunek śluzowca. Śluzowce dawniej zaliczano do grzybów, potem do protistów grzybopodobnych. Z przyczyn historycznych w podręcznikach traktowane są jako klasa roślin zarodnikowych, a w szczególności grzybów. Jednak bliższe są grupom typowo zwierzęcym. Wskazuje na to występowanie form ruchomych. Podczas cyklu rozwojowego śluzowców występują dwie formy: mobilny pełzak (myksameba, pływak) oraz ruchliwa śluźnia. Ponieważ nie są bezpośrednio spokrewnione ani z roślinami, ani ze zwierzętami, ani nawet z grzybami, niektóre ich cechy przypominają cechy roślin, grzybów albo zwierząt. Żywią się bakteriami, grzybami (nieraz pochłaniają całe owocniki grzybów), pierwotniakami. Ich stadium wegetatywne stanowi wielojądrowa śluźnia, która pełza za pomocą nibynóżek. Wykwit piankowaty tworzy cytrynowożółte, śluzowate, bezkształtne plazmodium, które nie zawiera chlorofilu i nie posiada błon cytoplazmatycznych. Jest rozprzestrzeniony na całej kuli ziemskiej. Zazwyczaj rośnie na martwych pniakach, pniach drzew, opadłych liściach i innych resztkach roślinnych, ale może rosnąć również na żywych roślinach. W Polsce spotykany jest głównie w lecie i jesienią, po deszczach i jest pospolity na terenie całego kraju.
I`m guessing it`s a very large group of old Slime mould joined together. Found on a cut tree trunk on heathland in Dorset
Could be Symphytocarpus flaccidus
Grateful for any help with ID! Found on a dead leaf but also spreading onto living grass in a damp shady meadow area, Buckinghamshire, UK

on a mossy tree stump behind my house, Hertfordshire. Any suggestions welcome! Note the shiny gloop beneath the fruiting bodies themselves with tiny black dots in it - I assume this is part of the organism...

Working on some possibilities for the macromonday theme of soap for 5/17. This would be an establishing shot for context
found this in my Local park growing in the area where there has been a lot of stinkhorns - stunning chrome yellow colour
Tapioca slime mold (Brefeldia maxima) deep in ints sporulating phase, with exposed capillitium.

Arcyria ferruginea? A bit of overkill with a 300 lens on - had been out photographing squirrels when Jim spotted this myxomycete.
Excited to find this impressive slime mold in Thetford Forest! Can anyone help with ID please? I wonder, is it Insect Egg Slime Mold (Leocarpus fragilis)?
Think this is Tapioca Slime mould. I spotted in a couple of places in Burnham Beeches today. Not such a pleasing image compared with the other fungi shots I have added to Flickr recently but these are tiny globes, very hard to spot.

This slimemold (Stemonitis sp.) ist visited by a mite (Damaeus onustus). It likes to eat mushrooms and myxomycets. This mite often carrys a pile of sand and earth on its back. I don't know why.
Dieser Schleimpilz (Stemonitis) bekommt besuch von einer Hornmilbe (Damaeus onustus). Sie frisst gerne Pilze und Schleimpilze. Die Hornmilbe trägt oft ein Häufchen Sand und Erde auf dem Rücken. Ich weiß nicht warum.

If you wonder about f16, use a telezoom and a Raynox DCR lens, take a series with f16 and focus bracketing, combine it in Helicon B and copare it to a native macro and a stack with f4.
Falls Ihr euch über f16 wundert, nehmt ein Telezoom und eine Raynox DCR Nahlinse, macht eine Reihe bei f16 mit Focus Bracketing, verrechnet sie mit Helicon B und vergleicht es mit einem nativen Makro und einem Stack der selben Art bei f4.
