I have been fortunate to find and witness the sporulation phase of the cauliflower slime mould on the old pollarded oak adjacent to the Goosander/Lapwing kissing gate.The first photo is just a few hours after the plasmodium comes together to start creating spores. The remaining photos are at 24 hour intervals and the last shows spores being released. An amazing organism.








Thanks Pete for the photos and information about the cauliflower slime mild. It is indeed a wonder of nature.
Thank you. Very interesting and informative photographs
