unknown fungus

Description:

Amorphous apparent fungus attached to tree litter along hiking trail

Habitat:

Pacific Northwest montane mixed coniferous and deciduous forest ecosystem

Notes:

Spotted along Indian Trail in Cougar Mountain Regional Wildland Park near Issaquah. Essentially shapeless ; it appears to be spreading--note the delicate, filigree-like extension on the right. Or I may be completely wrong and this is not a fungus at all, but something else, perhaps an egg cluster.
