Fungifriday || Auricularia auricula-judae fungus.

Happy fungifriday day and this is my contribution to #FungiFriday held by @ewkaw.

This February in our area, we have had days filled with hot weather and in the last two weeks, it has only been drizzling briefly in the middle of the night and residents around my area who planted rice after the rice had been planted at the end of last January, the rice fields looked dry due to lack of water and that's what I noticed yesterday as I walked along the local forest at the edge of the village's rice fields looking for snaps of wild mushrooms that I might find growing on damp wooden twigs piled up along the irrigation banks.

And after I walked a little further from the settlement which borders the edge of the village rice fields, I only found a few soft mushrooms growing on the roots of dead areca palm trees in the yard of the local community's agricultural fields and some of them looked so fresh ,, because they get splashes of water from the agricultural plants in that garden when the vegetable plants are watered by that garden owner.

Seeing that the owner of the farm was in the garden yard, I asked permission to enter his farm yard to take photos of the soft mushrooms growing on the surface of dead areca nut stalks in that farm yard and all I found were a few slime moldAuricularia auricula-judae they are soft mushrooms that have a characteristic reddish-brown texture , some of them look so fresh because they have just received a splash of water sprinkled by the owner of the vegetable garden planted around the areca nut embankment where that soft mushrooms and I found some of them growing on the surface of rotting wood around the edge of the well in that field.
