Some cute #mosses on my afternoon walk today. Love how #moss and #lichen cohabitates so happily together. Makes little mosaics on stone, branches, and the trunks of trees.

We've spotted this cute Barred Owlet standing tall, showing off her legs high up in the moss-covered trees, as s/he perched on a thin branch, being vigilant and poised, one of her wings stretched out. Such a character it looked like having wool leggings on, made me smile.
It was not easy to notice this little fledgling, her feathers blended in with the natural environment so much, providing camouflage among the dense, Pacific Northwest forest setting at Beaver Lake Park, Washington state in May 2024.

For #ThickTrunkTuesday I have a small maple draped with moss flanked by the massive trunks of two Coast Redwood trees (Sequoia sempervirens). Photographed at Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park near Crescent City, California.

I love changing my #perspective by slipping into the most impossible roles. It helps me see everyday things with new eyes. When I became this cute little green #alien, this is the result:

2 pages inside the mini-zine. At the left the alien standing on a mini continent on a blue planet. Beside a rocket with the words "open your mind" and on the continent: "and trust yourself". At the right many small green aliens stand on bright blue mycelium, some take the hands of others. Text: share & connect!

This photo reportage is genuine, created in a real Homo sapiens brain, and produced without any AI rubbish: an #expedition to a distant #planet where strong evidence of life had been found: the planet Elder 0815, part of the famous Mosslich-system. https://steady.page/en/naturematchcuts/posts/d242349d-fa59-4af8-a834-c93d580a4039

Yesterday I posted some #moss pictures from my lunchtime walk; that's currently the most-boosted toot I've had on Mastodon!

So here's some more - same walk, different bits of #mosses, #lichens, and #frosty leaves. Enjoy.

Did you ever gild #moss? I did! Look behind the scenes of producing my podcast episode about moss and how moss took revenge (I don't know why): https://steadyhq.com/en/naturematchcuts/posts/5d8402be-ad02-4d23-8c3b-4e42daf6a9b0 Of course you can listen to the episode now! And I interviewed a quite seditious tardigrade!
Just search #NatureMatchCuts on your podcatcher.

I’ve been following up on a Barred Owl family with three chicks. Love this captured moment as sunlight filtered through the trees of a dense PNW forest.
