Best photo I could get, Pam. These fungi were about 10-12 mm high and had already been trampled by a critter.

There has been a fair bit of name changeing with these coral fungi. This one used to by known as Clavaria miniata. Good image of a fungus in the natural environment, which tends to include creatures that have no respect for fungi or those of us that want to photograph them!! You captured the characteristic of the 'clubs' of the fungus are the same colour all the way down which is a distinguishing feature, plus the grooved sides of some of them.
