Jelly ear fungus

I thought it looked rather pretty with the light shining through. This fungus occurs around the world, mostly on the dead trunks and branches of elder trees, and is often cooked into dishes in Asian countries. Apparently, it's available in stores both fresh and dried! I think I'll stick to photographing it.

Many thanks for all the stars and hearts for my 3 year blip birthday yesterday. All very much appreciated.
