Thanks for the loverly comment! I will definately look up your suggestion and do more research.

Lana: I love lichen! Yes, a tripod would probably get a good pic, I hate carring things with me though. Sometimes a slow hike is better to notice things…don’t you think? :D

Jim: You have an awesome idea there. Yes, I think I will do that experiment at a later time and record it. Thanks for the cool idea!!!

It never really seems to photograph properly, but I’d probably have to bring my tripod to get really good shots (& I’m already slow-moving enough in the woods!)

You have portrayed it so well, one should be able to identify it. I wonder if it is ‘black-foam lichen’, Anzia colpodes. What do you think?
