I can't say for sure, but I think the white things on the leaves in pictures
24 & 25(?) resemble the azalea galls I had on my older azaleas last year.

Oh, right - I forgot them. I love galls and always pester Bill to photograph
them on walks when he would prefer to look for snakes On this walk I was
alone, so snapped a few pictures. I am guessing they are insect rather than
fungal galls, but for some reason I didn't open any up or examine them more
carefully. They were just a side bonus between the fungus and the carnivorous
plants, like the turtles

Anyone have any idea what that lovely fungus is? It had the most extraordinary
texture - silky and smooth and yet leathery, with an almost liquid interior.
