Walking off trail at the Rockwood Conservation Area I noticed these odd looking little deflated bags - they were about a couple of centimeters wide and growing on a decaying tree stump.
If anyone knows what they are I'd appreciate you letting me know - I've tried the net and asked around without success.

fungus that causes aborted fetus in cattle when it gets into the corn.
that's my guess.
Sounds good to me and yes, I did google 'smut' but it didn't look anything like this.
