Not really sure what this red thing is but it seems to have some sort of fungal like hyphae extending from it. Just accidentally found it while killing some time looking at lichens through the Axiostar.

Might be one of those things that causes Summit disease or some other wierd fungal infection, looks pretty alien though what ever it is, never seen one before. Thanks Doug
