Slime Mold

Bunnies, real and chocolaty... Cute kids.... Sure, they have their place.

Look what slimed out of a half cut up log in our yard this week. Really disturbing looking, isn't it? What luck! A slime mold.

It's not an animal and not a fungi. Nature is weirder the more you learn about it.

Having successfully disproved my mutant-salamander theory (salamanders don't marry), I now suspect my " brother" John is a highly evolved slime mold (slime molds are highly social). Hmmm, something to think about....
