What do you see in it ?

Found this fungus on the heath and it makes me think of an Elephant seal. Other suggestions ?

Fossilised woodlouse!

It looks amazing, I love the colours and yes a seal.

Great shot

[Gayanne Campbell]

Love a flourishing fungus! this reminds me of a creeping caterpillar for some reason.

[Yvonne]

It's very cool. I think the elephant seal is a great guess!!!

Cool looking fungus. I thought it was a creature of some kind at first.

[Vicki Dixon]

[Dione Giorgio]

A walrus perhaps? Fascinating fungus.

[CabinFest]

I like the walrus suggestion! Very interesting!

[Fisher Family]

Wow! It looks like a really fat caterpillar - the kind from Alice in Wonderland - Lucy

Een gordeldier!

[Al Bailey]

Could be tinder fungus? it does look like a woodlouse though ..... great find! :)

[Hazel]

It looks like a stone covered in moss to me. It's a very unusual fungus.
Are you SURE that it's not a stone covered in moss?!!

[Pyrrhula]

@quietpurplehaze Quite sure .
