Any idea if it was soft or rigid? The spots on it makes me wonder if it is some hardened resin on which small particles have got embedded before hardened. Regards Yazdy.

I assume it is fungus and not resin. It was on dead wood and the clear drops looked like some exudation. There was no rain. Can anyone please id it? There were many such formations varying from 5 cm length to 10cm. thanks very much.
