I found these in my yard yesterday. They look like some sort of egg. Does anyone know what it is? All of them have one little hole in them. I don't know if that is because something hatched out of them, or something like a bird ate what was in it. We've had lots of rain here so they were very soft to the touch. They were found on top of the ground, but don't know if the rain had something to do with that. I read somewhere about a website something like whatsthatbug.com does anyone know if that is correct or if there is another website I could upload this picture? Thanks.

Oh, yeah. I picked one up and squeezed it and puffs of smoke came out. Thanks so much.

these are puffball mushrooms.if you were to step on them before they opened a cloud of smoke would come out of them try next year when they get soft.

Those are a type of mushroom or fungus that are releasing spores.
