  1. The Smallest Forest on the Stump

    I have discovered an app on my phone that had been hiding in plain sight. The ‘Magnifier’. A small thing, yet it has opened a door. The everyday world has shrunk and turned strange. Tree stumps become miniature forests. Rough wood turns into a map of ridges and valleys.

  5. Mindfulness poem for the #lichenology #phycology #mycology fans. #Bryology fans can likely relate too.

    On Peace by Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer

    "There is so much I cannot do
    to help the world,
    but this—
    let me learn to metabolize
    silence as the alga in lichen
    metabolizes light."

  9. William Mudd: Lichens, Legacy, and a Whiff of Whisky

    There I was, trudging along the escarpment of Great Ayton Moor this morning, mulling over what I might post about today, when a patched-up bit of dry-stone wall caught my eye. Naturally, my thoughts turned to how many times one can repair a wall before it ceases to be the original. Yes, I am aware this is not precisely “The Ship of Theseus”— ...

  13. Highcliff Nab: A Crusty Puzzle

    Highcliff Nab today, and an enduring puzzle on its crag face. Nearly the entire surface is smothered in light green lichen, except for one striking vertical band where the rock is inexplicably bare, as though the lichens collectively decided this spot was beneath them.

    Lichens, those delightful symbiotic oddities born of desperation between fungi and algae, ...

  17. Nature’s Canvas on Whorlton Moor

    Of all the boulders on the North York Moors, this is perhaps my favourite. It rests nestled in the heather on Stony Ridge on Whorlton Moor, but back in the last ice age, it would've been getting a good washing from the waves along the shore of Lake Scugdale.

    Now, in places where fungi and algae struggle to thrive, evolution has come up with a symbiotic ...

  21. Was für eine besondere Begegnung es mittlwerweile ist die #Lungenflechte (#Lobaria pulmonaria) zu sehen. Sie kommt nur noch vereinzelt in den #Alpen vor und es hat insbesondere in Deutschland absoluten Seltenheitswert einen so vitalen Bestand wie diesen zu finden und dann auch noch fruchtend! 😍 🥳 #Lichenology #Lichenologie

  25. Can anyone help me identify this specific Lichen? It’s covering - and I mean absolutely COVERING - the NW-facing side of a dry stone wall on an exposed coastal path, North Devon, UK. It looks like a beard lichen/oakmoss type thing, but the habitat and material suggest not! Many thanks for any help!
