Corals In the Forest

Earlier this summer, we camped overnight at Seneca State Forest. (We don't have to leave the county to find cooler breezes.) I found some interesting fungi, including this little coral on a bed of moss. When I got home, I discovered that I had captured some tiny springtails as well. If I had been trying to get this chubby little collembolan in focus, I couldn't have done it, but here he is, a photographic bonus.

Wonderful post! What a lovely little coral in the forest! And you captured the insect by accident--great!
