Cyathus striatus
Loads of this bird's nest fungus was growing on the fertilizer which I suspect mainly made up of plant materials or wood chip. This fungus is very tiny and can be easily missed. The "eggs" in each "nest" contain the spores. It is from the family Nidulariaceae.
On the fertilizer under a young tree.
