Along the Woodland Trail, Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge
Assateague, VA

I looked in my (not very comprehensive) plant and fungus guides, but I couldn't find this creature anywhere. Does anyone know what these really are?

Update: One of my blog readers knew. And these are not a fungus at all.
