I spotted these on old trunks and branches in a few, scattered groups.

These were curry-yellow or cream and ovoid or spherical in shape.

On Day 15, these had turned honey-yellow, while some remained white or yellow.

Some of the more mature ones had opened up.

In these Day 19 close-up photos, you can see them opening up to release ochre to yellowish spores.
