Each little "nest" contains spore sacs which release their spores when raindrops hit them.

Amazing to see. I don’t think I’ve ever seen this. Bravo! V

perhaps raindrops indicate good growing conditions as well as offering a mode of transport...they are intriguing, and the woodsy tones are perfect..V

Nicely photographed. They always seem to appear on dead wood.

Interesting. I wonder why evolution favored the raindrop method.
