Amorphous blob attached to tree litter along hiking trail
Pacific Northwest montane mixed coniferous and deciduous forest ecosystem.
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.

Thanks for the suggestion, Machi. I've added this spotting to the slime molds mission.
You could add it to the slime molds mission and maybe someone will help you get an ID http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/4357...
Thanks Machi. I think you've got it.
Perhaps a slime mold rather than a fungus?
