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.

Straggly moss and grey lichen on a birch branch.

I saw this granite boulder in Creason woods today, and thought it looked like a face, covered in moss. Pareidolia is the term that explains why we see faces in inanimate objects..or it may be a sleeping giant 😊. #Dartmoor #Devon #mosstodon #photography

photobombed by a cute owlet in the Pacific Northwest.

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.

We found the perfect ball of moss

There's an incredible diversity in the world of fungi and I just love observing all the different strategies they've developed to not only survive but thrive in the ever-changing world they live in.

I half expected to see Totoro lounging in the moss. I did get hit with some acorns though

#mosstodon #oldgrowthforest

a large patch of moss in the afternoon sunlight in an old growth forest. There are some smaller white pine trees growing among larger ones and the moss is blanketing the ground between them all.

a stream bend in an old growth forest. The water is low and slow moving and is dotted with fallen leaves. The afternoon light is illuminating the tree tops but the stream and stream bank is in the shadows still.

These mushrooms I saw on a walk yesterday were almost orange.

(Some relevant hashtags because I've been told to include them: Hiya, #mushtodon and #mosstodon folks!)

Strange little world

#mosstodon #raindrops #macro #photography

Macro photograph of a small clump of green moss and its fruiting stems, covered in raindrops during a downpour, highlighting red and orange, green and blue in the drops. At first glance, it's not clear what it is, giving a strange and somewhat abstract impression.

Photographie macro d'une petite touffe de mousse verte et ses tiges de fructifications, recouvertes de gouttes de pluie pendant une averse, faisant ressortir du rouge et du orange, du vert et du bleu dans les gouttes. À première vue, ce n'est pas clair de quoi il s'agit, donnant une impression étrange et un peu abstraite.

A little mushroom in its own little room.

#mosstodon #mushroom #mushtodon #nature

A little mushroom with an orange stalk and light brown cap growing on a weathered tree stump that's partially covered and surrounded by moss with a vivid green color. The tree stump has the form of a stair with two steps and has a hole in the horizontal center of the upper step. The mushroom is right in there with moss growing on top of the upper step creating a "roof" for the mushroom. There's two dark brown mushrooms on the side of the stump.

A colony of unknown mushrooms grows on a hollow log transformed into a spring fountain in the German Black Forest

#fungifriday #vendredichampignons #mushrooms #mushroom #mosstodon #naturephotography #photography #blackforest #Schwarzwald #germany #deutschland

A hollow log was put horizontally as a spout for a natural spring in the forest, the water cascades out of it in a thin drizzle. The log is covered with a colony of brown-gold colored mushrooms with a flat cap. On both sides of the spring, the ground is covered in lush vegetation

I guess this is what moss looks like after the sporophytes have blown their tops and dispersed their spores? Thanks to the hashtag #mosstodon I've paid a lot closer attention to moss this year so this is all new to me.

Some silvergreen byrum moss but there's nothing silver or green about it. The sporophytes have blown their tops (that used to be pointy), and now they look like red cups or goblets on top of long slender stems.

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.
