Looking like a dead man's fingers and toes, crawling up from under -- creepy fungi! There's actually another mushroom called Dead Man's Fingers, but "these ones" (as we say in Missouri) are Devil's Urns (
Urnula craterium), the first I've seen on the property. Their rubbery "eyeballs" pop open eventually and they turn into little empty black bowls -- inedible.
They are edible,i love em. Pick em after opening and soak in salt water all day. soak in half n half all night and roll in cornmeal. Fry them in lard and enjoy.
