Wise mumsnetters, can anyone identify what is in the attached pic? There are quite a few of them buried in the lawn and some in flowerbeds too. They've probably always been a spring occurrence but I'm not a keen gardener so never noticed them before. This year we have a dog who wants to eat everything so wondered what they were (and if they're hazardous for dogs). We've got loads of pine/fir type trees so I wondered if it was what happened to fallen pine cones. DH says it's a type of fungus, but they're buried in the ground, not growing out.
