Phaeophyscia pusilloides

Pompom shadow lichen

This foliose lichen grows in rounded rosettes up to 3 cm in diameter. It has narrow, elongated lobes closely attached to the substrate. The upper surface is gray-brown when dry, and bright green when wet! And the lower surface is black with long, simple rhizines. It produces powdery soredia from capitate or labriform soralia on the lobe tips. It only rarely produces apothecia, which have a rhizinate margin and a brown disc. It has a green algal photobiont. P. pusilloides grows on nutrient-enriched, deciduous trees in temperate, montane valleys in North America and Europe.

her ruby eye, wings of pearl

Collared doves aren't the most exotic or beautiful birds, but I'm sure they make a great meal for local raptors, and I think that's wonderful

symbiosis

some visible mending I did on an old flannel recently! this was fun but took me so long to convince myself to do, Im very happy with how its come out though. The lichens are oak moss, bloodstain lichen, a third thats very common in texas but i forgot the name of, and then some lovely little algae (i love algae in theory but hate it in eutrophication ;v;)

Went down to the riverside to take pictures of the river. Did not take any pics of the river. Ended up taking pictures of the lichen on the trail bridges instead.

i was going to write like this long thing about how much variation of textures and shapes and colors is out there in nature to feast your brain on and how good it must be for the human mind, but I'm sleepy.

look. you can go outside in the woods and take a picture of a random log or rock and you will have something you could get a print of and hang on the wall for home decor because nature invented beauty
