This is an immature Stemonitis. Brefeldia is more opaque & has a distinctive texture like rolling mounds of tiny bumps. Far away it looks like porridge or white gravy and up close it looks like tapioca or kinda like starfish feet

i checked back today and now way u were right!!! a bit wet but here they are!

Thank you for checking & sharing the photo! They look rained on & they will probably not form viable spores, but I guess you never know

Some of them look pretty separated though, maybe they are just extra wet at the moment
