Came across this on a plastic tray whilst doing a fall cleanup by my potting table. It's very tiny and growing on a piece of bark/dirt. Anyone recognize it?

It is pretty! I've researched pink and white mold and fungus on google images and can't find a match or even close to one.

Hi Anne,
I am fairly sure that it's a kind of Slime Mould, a group of organisms once
considered to be fungi but now known to be quite different. I can't ID the
species, but you can see a small selection of Slime Moulds on my page here:
Thanks to everyone who replied. At least I can narrow it down to find the species.

Indeed! I don't think it's reached the 'slime' part yet.
