  The Cladonia called to me as I was washing the breakfast dishes. Well, not called as much as glowed. It looked luminous against the rain-darkened cedar fence. I went outside and took some pictures. Ive never seen Cladonia on the fence before. Meanwhile, the children, off school, are watching Dad out ...

  Mid-December blooms shouldn’t be easy to come by. I’m actually pleased to report that the kniphofias have finally fallen and as you can see the astrantia, sturdy old thing, is looking a little on the done side finally. But I can hardly believe that I found a dianthus in the just-past bloom stage in the [...]

  Jessica's Nature Blog — Authority: 132
  Small rock pools are scattered across the rock ledge at Winspit. Some are shallow and others are deep. Some are on the general surface and others are embedded in rock clefts. Most are rounded in outline but a few are differently shaped.  Some of the pools shown here seem almost like the shape of an eye or a mouth. ...

  Behind today’s advent calendar “door” we have a couple of studies in green and gold. First up, the not-so-secret ingredient in Tom’s Christmas ale. We are already looking forward to this festive brew! I’ve always been intrigued by Lyle’s Lion and Bees trademark, and only today discovered that “out of ...

  The ko Box — Authority: 125
  When I went for my walk in the woods today, it was the first time I had been around the trail in a while... the rains and the cold make me look for more indoor projects. I felt disoriented at first by the now open, vast and dead-ness of the wooded area, I was beginning to feel a little nostalgic for the summer cause ...

  I seem to have found my voice again-this post is a bit picture heavy too, for which my apologies.I have finally finished the fourth lichen piece, stretching it over a cardboard mount and herringbone stitching the edges together to keep it taut. I’m pleased with it and will photograph the four pieces together as soon ...

  Ask MetaFilter — Authority: 627
  Coping/Curing Lichen Sclerosus? During my lady exam in September, my doctor asked me if Id had any jock itch type issues lately. Which Id had and figured it was a yeast infection. Turns out it wasnt that and from her description, it sounded like the skin in that area has thickened, turned white and is somewhat ...

• Lichen Stones

  
  Plants and Stones — Authority: 122
  This lichen covered stone rests atop one of Eds stone walls. Stones seem so hard, so permanent. Water wears away stones over time, I realize that. This makes sense, but its hard to imagine that lichens are eating the stones, slowly digesting them into soil. Its a funny idea plants eating stones. It seems like ...

We will have to return when the rains come for the wildflower show and seek out the palm oases in the park where there is a better ...

  My Quality Day — Authority: 128
  Wow, oh wow! These cute little lichen are not new to me, but I sure didnt know that I have them in "my kingdom." But this week I mowed all my paths to get them cleaned up for skiing before the snow arrives. Since some of the routes really dont get hiked, but are better for skiing, they got kinda lost in the grass. ...
