These, though translucent and squishy, were somewhat firm, with a distinct 'skin'/membrane around each one.

I have it as fungi, but maybe it could be slime mold? I believe they were gone by the time the woods dried out a day or two later.
EDIT: now that I have looked through some options, I am setting it as jelly spot fungus on the basis of shape, size, apparent texture & translucence, substrate, and growth pattern/distribution. But most jelly spot fungi appear to be a darker/vibrant orange color, at least those observed on iNaturalist. This is one of those I wish I had taken a sample of. I will continue to check that spot to see if I ever find them again.

Substrate is a long dead branch/standing little tree. Possibly chokecherry, but not sure of that.

Each individual "blob" was small, 2-5 mm estimate.
