Lemon drops (Bisporella citrina)

I am always enchanted by these minute sac fungi, whose common name of lemon drops is so apt, given the way they look. This is a macro shot, but in reality they look like small yellow pinpricks, so if you don't have a camera with a macro feature or macro lens, you'll need a hand lens to see them up close and appreciate them.
