Identification: pink little flowers on the lawn

i have found small little pinkish flowers on my lawn which are located in dead like areas. i think they are some form of fungus or mold but cannot find anything about it. it is like some small insidious creeping strands of buttercup like stuff but i have never seen the pink little ends before.. can anyone help..??
thanks

 

I think a picture would be worth a lot. Fungi don't have flowers, so if what you've noticed is flowers, then we're talking about a vascular plant.

 

thanks for you reply.. i have taken a photo of the pink fungus or what ever it is .. i will attempt to enclose them.. the lawn was planted on sand and is mowed regularily with a reel mower .. irrigated with a sprinkler system.. there are dead spots where the pink fungus is.. i pulled it up and photographed it as opposed taking a photo of the lawn.. i hope that is ok..

thanks dave

 

Cool, you have slime molds. Not a true fungus, but I think more closely related to fungi than vascular plants, so I've moved the thread back into the Fungus ID forum.

I'm not sure of what species this might be, as information about species online is sketchy. Here are some general references, though:

And several species of beetles which feed on them:
