Entire surface of the mushroom (including the stipe) is covered in a gelatinous slime.
Funnel-shaped cap growing saprophyticly on presumed conifer stump. Margin is golden to orange-gold (color perhaps exaggerated by sunlight shining through permeable edges). Warted like Golden Philiota, but no observable stipe. KOH 10% reacts reddish brown on interior surface (last photo). Cannot tell if alive or dead/deteriorating.
Found this little guy during evening hike. Fell out of a nest probably. Brought to local raptor rehab.

A local parrot conservationist from a bird sanctuary in Bonaire identified this bird (from my photos) as a rare blue mutant of the typically green yellow-shouldered parrot, Amazona barbadensis. I observed the bird flying around with other yellow-shouldered parrots.
