Many-headed Slime

Lake Cowichan B C

Physarum polycephalum

This slime mold grows on dead wood in very damp dark creek bottoms.
It is a very fascinating member of the fungi family

Wow, this is an excellent image, you can almost feel the slime fungus growing.

Hi Norm,
Lovely sharply focused macro shot! I like the contrast between the slime and the dark background. Lovely shades and textures! Well done!
