Landscape with various Cladonia lichens and mosses
Pixie cup & lipstick #lichens & #liverwort mixed in with assorted #mosses. Super green microworlds
Just another ecological component of a healthy & biodiverse, coastal temperate rainforest ecosystem on #Wsanec territory.
There's a lot of tiny detail in this lichen, despite it being mostly one colour...and so many shapes. It's possibly a Parmelia???
Update: Probably Pseudevernia furfuracea, thanks to feedback from @Hagukh!

There was some hail this morning, so I thought I'd take a picture of one of my nearly finished lights to show you. I might add some red stitches to this to support the red lights here, as they are a bit sparse. Those are made after Trichia decipiens (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trichia_decipiens).
Vibrant yellow
Feels like the changing of the seasons. The hawthorn is starting to break into leaf. Soon it will shade out most of the lichen growing on the twigs.
