Arcycria denudata possibly

Picking up a fallen branch from the leaf litter, I eventually spotted a few brick-red slime mould fruiting bodies, which might be the relatively common Arcyria denudata, purely on the basis of colour and probability. Microscopy would be needed for a reliable identification. I might be able to find the branch again, to see if the condition of the fruiting bodies has improved at all following the freezing conditions over the past week.
