Field Notes

Description:

Also known as Scrabbled Eggs slime mold. This yellow Amoebozoa is the largest mass of slime I've seen in one location.

Habitat:

A log-jam in a ravine that doesn't usually get too flooded.

Notes:

My camera had a VERY hard time with the yellow in these photos. The sun was setting and there was almost no light.
