What is this?

For those who are interested, I believe what this was, is called Wolf's milk Slime Mold.

DING DING DING We have a winner. I could not for the life of me remember slime mold but know that you say it that is it! The tree appears to be a Silver Maple.

I've never posted a video through photobucket, so hopefully this works.

I have successfully neutered my tree using a long rusty screwdriver. Now the images may make you cringe, but I thought, for educational purposes, I'd share the procedure with you.

i guess a link to the video must suffice, I cannot embed it here. I'm sure it can be done, but I'm not tech savy enough to make that happen.

Is it just me, or did anyone else's (males) toes curl up a little bit while watching that?

Looks a lot like a wood ear. (uhh.. used in oriental cooking and said to increase libido! Well, maybe not, just threw in that last part.) Had you left it alone, it would have turned hard!

Now see, that's just counter intuitive to me.

Did it scream?

Just a little grunting.

Did you check to see if a 1911 Ruger was attracted to them? Maybe the tree would need pants though.

Lol, the Ruger has a new home.
