Sac fungus (Peziza)

In an open area which had been heavily disturbed this past summer, I saw a great quantity of these small sac fungi growing. I liked this double sac holding the water.

Great spotting this one! I really like fungi and have taken plenty of pictures, but never this variety! Good find.

Cool find. Looks alien (like it could be used as a prop for the Alien movie franchise).
