| | | Unidentified Jelly on a rock
Anyone know what this strange thing is? 
It was stuck to a rock at the top of hartshead pike in Ashton. I am utterly lost as to whether it is bird poo, some sort of fungus or candle wax!!!!
Any idea's? |

The blackening around the R/H side seems to indicate candle wax
I watch too many SCI-FI films ,poke it and you are dead

Someone's been having a vigil on Hartshead Pike, that's candle wax. |

Thanks guys  - I didn't have anything to poke it with at the time, especially as my 3 year old was with me - don't want to encourage her to indiscriminately poke unknown objects  thought it was a candle, but I find any goat skins or other ritualistic items though!
Must say if anyone is at all close to the Ashton area it is well worth a trip to the pike - despite being a bit hazy the views across Manchester and the Cheshire plane were amazing  |
