User's notes

Sighting 4627582 and 4627318 Initial sighting was on 10/12/2024 - after a few days of careful monitoring we can now confirm that this plasmodium became Fuligo septica. Very interesting to observe to complete colour change from brilliant yellow to an almost white crusty appearance. When another creature steps on this or perhaps some rain drops, the brown spores will emerge.
