This is a myxo - Fuligo septica - hope you get back to see the mature specimen

Not a problem seeing it again. Is it supposed to go yellow or orange? There was another and it has just gradually disintegrated and is going black.

This one will not become more yellow with age; generally the pale yellow ones will harden, then generally change to a brownish shade before cracking to release the spores
