I do not know exactly what it is, but I have seen it before. I have it in my redwood bark that I use for cover in my front flowerbeds. It normally hides underneath the bark and sticks the pieces together. It's a fibery texture. I think it is some kind of fungus. Sometimes it looks a little like cheese (ewww) The only areas it seems to grow in my bark is where there is little sun exposure and less drainage. Maybe it is a moisture thing?
