Another quiet evening walk seeking out native species:
- common self-heal (prunella vulgaris)
- douglas fir (pseudotsuga menziesii)
- evergreen huckleberry (vaccinium ovatum)
- oakmoss (evernia prunastri)
- pacific banana slug (ariolimax columbianus)
- red alder (alnus rubra)
- rose spirea (spiraea douglasii)
- stairstep moss (hylocomium splendens)
- the prince (agaricus augustus)
A bed of muted green stairstep moss covers debris from nearby coniferous trees
A common self-heal with light purple flowers and reddish purple stem is in center with a field of creeping buttercups in the background
A soft white cluster of flowers from an ocean spray shrub
A wide cap and a shortened stem of the prince mushroom reaching out from the forest floor
