Notes:
No odor that I can notice, spongelike texture, red-orange in color, about 4inches long, popped up nearly overnight. I live in rural northern Florida and this is under and around bark from a previously cut down, dead, pecan tree in my yard

Looks like Pseudocolus fusiformis, Stinky Squid Fungus. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudocolus_fusiformis

Some kind of mushroom but I can’t quite see it clearly enough to be sure of which one. Needless to say, I wouldn’t advise eating it to find out…
