Hello! I found these two weird things growing close to each other on the border behind a couple of spiraea japonicas. Any idea what they are and if i should do anything about them? Should their presence tell me something about the state of the bed there?

Thanks!imageimage

    I think the first one may be this one  http://www.first-nature.com/fungi/ramaria-stricta.php 

    not sure about the second one  but you may well find it on that site

    Lots of fungi appearing on woodchip mulches at this time of year ... as Pansyface says, it's evidence that all is in good working order and nothing to worry about ... just leave them alone to get on with doing what they do. image

    Many thanks both! Good to know. Never seen one like the first one before. That's a worryingly large squirrel in that illustration though! image

    NOT TO MENTION THE "LEECH" RATHER THAN LEACH.
