I found this small white 'blob' on an old oak tree last week. Wondered what it was and on closer inspection it looked like a cluster of small eggs - baffled !
The following day the look like a cluster of eggs had gone and there was a thin skin over it. Then another day on I noticed a small entrance hole at the lower end of it. I saw no activity at all and everything has disappeared now.
Any ideas ??
It could be the slime mould called False Puffball, it was Reticularia lycoperdon but has recently changed name to Enteridium lycoperdon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enteridium_lycoperdon
