First slime mold of the year!

I saw these little guys from a long way off--they looked almost traffic cone orange! This is wolf's milk slime mold Lycogala epidendrum.


Little cushions look smooth from a distance but are textured close up.

Indeed! Wolf's milk and dog vomit are the two slime molds I can guarantee I'll see every year.
