Learning something new everyday. Thanks for this, Alex. Is it edible?
Some say it is edible, it’s scientific name translates to ‘trembling intestine’. 🙁
Wow, thank you for the lesson!!

I found some Witches’ Butter and I posted it, but I also gave you credit and put a link to your blog. I hope that’s okay. http://evalightfootphotos.wordpress.com/2013/02/11/witches-butter/ Thank you for teaching me something new!!!
Thanks, Eva. 🙂
Thank you!!
Interesting. Is it plant or animal. It sort of looks like a slug.
Someone asked me if you could eat it, so I looked it up. This was interesting.

You need to be really careful about eating fungi; it’s best to leave it alone, unless you are a fungi expert.
It’s a fungus, Maralee.
One butter I shall give a miss.
Very wise, Alex.
