Slime again
Two blips ago it was moon poo, today it's wolf's milk. I spotted these peachy little blobs on old log and recognised them as Lycogala slime mould, which in its reproductive phase forms these cushiony sacs of creamy goo. When ripe the goo turns to a brown powder but at this stage the blobs are easily ruptured.
There are countless videos on social media of spots being squished (apparently some people enjoy the sight) and now the popping of Lycogala sacs has hit the big time too.
See here for (very short) example. It's quite revolting!
The image is enlarged. The individual blobs are about the size of blueberries.
