Back in the land of Big Lichen 🤠 (Orkney)
For 15 years, an old, no longer used chopping block has been lying untouched behind our garden fence at the edge of the forest.
Today, I took another look at it and snapped a few quick photos. What I found was impressive:
Various mosses and a great variety of different lichens of the genus Cladonia, such as Reindeer, British Soldier, Trumpet, Mealy Pixie Cup, Organ Pipe, Powderhorn, Pyxidata lichen and more... just nature.

If you like nature photos there are a bunch such as #Mosstodon#LichenSubscribe and #ThickTrunkThursday.
There are also more than a few communal activities on here (some are synchronous, some asynchronous) which is a great way to meet people: #Monsterdon (sunday night "monster" B-movie watch party) #QueerRomanceClub (queer book club, reads one book a month), #BikeNite (people ask bike questions everything from the basics to super technical stuff and are very friendly to encouraging new riders), (there is also a video game club that does a game a month, but I can't recall the hashtag)

More Aotearoa / New Zealand wholesomeness for your timeline…
That’s not mist, it’s steam from geothermal activity. At Kerosene Creek, about twenty minutes drive out of Rotorua.

Me? I went in two volcanoes today and one lava tube. The latter was full of tiny gardens 😄 #mosstodon #lichensubscribe

Shadowed #lichen in front of a sunny late afternoon meadow. All natural light, even if it doesn't look like it.
