Muppet on a Maple Tree

This fungus was huge! The leaves below it are a little bigger than my hand. It reminded me so much of something I would have seen on Sesame Street. I kept waiting for it to talk to me, but it kept silent...each of the little hairs on it had a drop of moisture falling off.
Wow! great find! beautiful texture!
