Spotting

Thank you for taking a look at my other post. c:

Too bad, but I'm glad you found another one.

I returned to the spot where I saw this slime mold, and there was no sign of it. There was, however, a different grouping nearby that appears to have entered the spore-bearing stage (I'm just guessing). I will post it as a new spotting.

Yes. Check it daily until it stops being 'goopy.'
I posted images of Fuligo septica a few days ago at

They show a patch of the fruiting structure as well as a macro shot to try and illustrate what it looks like. That will give you a point of reference for Fuligo septica.
I've only seen Physarum polycephalum once, before the plasmodium formed its fruiting structure. There are some good images at

It looks like this mold forms smaller 'individual' structures than Fuligo septica.
Hope this helps.

Hmm. Is there anything that I can do to help you narrow it down further? I can take better photos today, if it is still there.

I agree with PucaK.

This looks like the plasmodium of a slime mold. It might be
Physarum polycephalum

or
Dog vomit/Scrambled egg slime mold (Fuligo septica)
