I think this is a slime mould. A species of Physarum?

Such a surprise to come across such a beautiful sighting, which I believe to be Physarum compressum. Your pics are terrific, many thanks.

Thank you. I’ve always wanted to see a slime mould but never knew what I was looking for. Exciting to find two different species almost in the same spot. Probably only 20m apart! Thanks for your identification.
