Can you identify this? Growing in a damp hay bale in my sister’s yard in Bemidji. Some people suggested Dead Man’s Fingers but they loo different than photos of that on Google. Thanks

Good Morning Erica,
Thank you for contacting the U of M Extension Service.
We are volunteers who answer yard and garden questions. I am not familiar with every type of fungus. With our wet weather, many types of fungus are growing.
Please click on the following link from the U of M Extension Yard and Garden website:

If you scroll down, these resemble a type of stink horn.
Good Luck!
