Welcome, rejackson! Welcome! I'm new to this world, too, but they sure look like seeds of something. Does something grow above it that could have dropped them?

Hi rejaxson! Welcome! Looks like birds nest fungus!
One to take to heart....1 John 4 ..............................................Where there is smoke...there is fire...in most cases the smoke will kill you long before the fire consumes you.

Rejaxson; Welcome!
Cannon or artillery fungus ( seems to me ), if next to ANYTHING you like the looks of, then you should put some boxes or big bottles around it. That.......stuff?....shoots out at a surprisingly strong force and the 'seeds' stick better than glue. Nasty, nasty, NASTY.

I would throw down a fungicide.

I believe that is most likely Birds Nest fungus not artillery fungus.
