Some rough goose neck moss (𝘏𝘺𝘭𝘰𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘭𝘱𝘩𝘶𝘴 𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘴 or 𝘙𝘩𝘺𝘵𝘪𝘥𝘪𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘭𝘱𝘩𝘶𝘴 𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘴), from the Wiley Trails:

A conglomeration of branches of bright green, feathery moss.

Visited a very mossy churchyard on the weekend #MossyMonday #Mosstodon #MossMonday

Moss on a tombstone in a graveyard. The tombstone is shaped a bit like a head and torso

From the Wiley Trails, two different mosses in one spot! Crisped pincushion (𝘜𝘭𝘰𝘵𝘢 𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘱𝘢) and wavy broom moss (𝘋𝘪𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘶𝘮 𝘱𝘰𝘭𝘺𝘴𝘦𝘵𝘶𝘮):

A patch of crisped pincushion moss, looking rather like a prickly yellowish-green hedgehog perched on a branch.

Two pale, bare branches form a sideways "V" across the picture, with a different patch of moss on each branch. The moss on top is a ball of yellowish-green prickles, whereas the moss on the lower branch is a patch of thick, true green, wavy leaves and stems.

A spot of wavy broom moss; although it looks less like a hedgehog than the other moss, I could still see it as a hedgehog with more luxurious wavy green hair instead of spines. It's also perched on a bare branch.

#ThickTrunkTuesday

Still Monday here in PA, already Tuesday in Japan where I was grown up
This trunk looks like a Bigfoot

A thick trunk, rising from a bed of fallen leaves, is covered by vibrant green moss.

Just some moss living its best life on a stone wall, from yesterday's hike at Thompson Park:

A small patch of green moss perches on a stone jutting out of a mortared stone wall.

Closeup of the moss patch on the stone wall. The moss is a bright and fuzzy green like some kind of cuddly plush critter, with a couple dozen sporophytes jutting up and leaning to the right like inquisitive antennae.

Moss and lichen, from yesterday's hike on the Wiley Trails:

A closeup of moss, some shaggier and golden and some fuzzier and green, along with pale blue-green lichen ranging from pixie cups to foliose patches.

Nolde Forest, PA

There was a moss and lichen-covered rock wall below the trail

The stone wall that supports the hiking trail above is totally covered by moss. The bottom of the wall looks like a narrow pass filled with fallen leaves along dark green grassy areas, which are all situated in the forest.

An abandoned wooden bridge over the Little Lehigh Creek

#MossyMonday #Mosstodon #Moss

An abandoned wooden bridge is crossing a creek. Wood beams are rotted and a lot of plants are grown on the bridge. Wood beams are also covered by moss.

Black (Hayes) Creek
- tributary of the Lehigh River

The water is cold (16C/61F) but the air is warm (30C/86F) after the thunderstorm - the area is very steamy on a summer day

A misty creek flows through the rocky terrain in the deep woods. Due to the thunderstorm, the area is very humid and steamy. The boulders in front are totally covered by moss.

Hawk Run, PA

This creek leads to the popular Hawk Falls. Access has been restricted for a few years, and shortcuts to the falls are also closed. While I am unsure of the cause, such measures are frequently put into effect because of misbehaviors or accidents caused by careless visitors

Around sunrise, the area is still misty from the moisture of the creek, which flows through rocky terrain surrounded by trees and dense thickets. The water, which is cold even during summer, plunges into a small stream pool, and the rocks along the banks are covered in moss.

Stinson Run, PA
- a tributary of Hay Creek

It was raining yesterday, but I went walking in the woods anyway

A tiny tributary flows through a forest. Because of rain, the water is muddy and faster than usual. A boulder on the left side is fully covered by vivid green moss.

Not technically Macro Monday content, since they weren't taken with a macro lens, but I'm always amazed at how close the Nikon 24-70mm for the Z mount can focus.

Taken during my walk this morning. Nice even cloud cover makes for well saturated photos, and the green moss on the gray stone really popped. Enjoy!
