I did the #Blauen ridge, which is awesome on the #Fatbike, and still cool on the full-sus. I'm not sure whether this also counts as #Mosstodon?

This bit of wall is pretty adorable, with tiny ferns, moss and lichen #Mosstodon #phonetography

Brick wall, triangular brick 'teeth' on top. On it grows lichen, moss and very small ferns.

Thought I’d do a slightly more unusual example for #mosstodon today.

View down a forest path framed by leafed trees in the shadow. The path opens up onto a field with green grass and small trees against a blue sky.

#mosstodon

apea, masentunut ja masentava päivä.
tein sitt 2 minuutin luontoretken parvekkeelle. sammalia on joissakin kukkaruukuissakin.

naapurilla on *tuulikello*. eikö he tajua ett sitä pahuksen kilinää joutuu kuuntelemaan muut kuin he itse? lintujen laulua on huomattavasti vähemmän kuin muutama viikko sitten. mutt joku rastas vielä harvakseltaan pikkaisen sirkuttaa. liikenteen ja kaikenlaisten kaupungin moottorisoitujen äänten kohina kuuluu kovin vahvana. hieman tuulenkin ääni pihan puussa.

lähikuva pienestä sammaltupsusta, parvekkeen lattiasta ja likaisesta kaiteesta jonka läpi näkyy kaupungin rakennuksia ja sininen taivas ja muutama pilvenhattara.

It's strange how, from a certain angle, a moss-covered tree may look like a troll. #Mosstodon

A mossy young-growth forest, with sunlight filtering down to the undergrowth. A peculiar tree looks very troll-like indeed

@gjquartermaine Hi. I know this sounds weird, but maybe this is the place to post more broadly, and then to enjoy interactions that follow. For example, you might post about some lovely moss you found and use the #Mosstodon hashtag. As that conversation develops, people learn you have books and videos and then make decisions about investigating them further. This is true for cars, robots, science-fiction, and every other conceivable topic. I hope you find the connections you're looking for.

Made it back home so here’s some bonus photos and a trail report for those in the area. Within the last two weeks the Larch Mountain trail has been completely cleared of downed trees. The trail hasn’t been this well maintained since 2019. Snow at 4000 feet has mostly melted. Only one tiny patch on the entire trail. Hoping that Wahtum Lake will be clear in two weeks but it’s apparently still super snowy.

Multnomah Falls. Two-tier waterfall with a bridge over the lower tier. Moss covers the rocky slopes on both sides of the falls. Bushes in the lower section of the photo partially covering the pool of water underneath the falls.

@sharoz @debivort @NicoleCRust there are hashtag lists for topics. And every instance has trending hashtags! If you are f.e. on an instance with climate scientists, you find mostly hashtag trends about climate. Or you can try the nerdy ones like #mosstodon to teach bryology to fans.😉

Im Blumentopf eines noch jungen Feigenbaums hat sich ein Alpen-Brunnenlebermoos angesiedelt. Es besteht aus rundlichen, fleischigen „Blättern“, die bis dreieinhalb Zentimeter groß werden können und in ihrer Form an Leberlappen erinnern.

Does something like #mosstodon exist for #fungi? I have never seen a #mushroom grow on a tree like that! That looks completely bonkers! 😳 🍄

Given just a simple text based boost from @doot Is not enough to slashdoot my instance, it was suggested that a photo might work better. Looking through my photos, I find no moss for #mosstodon, But I did find some lovely Lichen I took in the North of Finland. Perfect for #LichenSubscribe

Please enjoy my Lichen.

Reindeer Lichen aka Cladonia rangiferina, photographed on a log north of the Arctic circle somewhere near Muonio Finland.

Mosses cover a China-size area of the globe and have a significant impact on ecosystems and climate change, according to a new study.

Soil mosses can potentially add 6.43 billion metric tons of carbon to the soil globally, an amount equivalent to the annual emissions of 2.68 billion cars.

'... mosses sequester around 6.43 billion metric tons more carbon in the soil than is stored in the bare patches of soil without any plants typically found nearby them in global semi-arid areas. To put it into perspective, this is six times the annual global carbon emissions caused by changes in land use (e.g., deforestation, urbanization, mining, etc.) worldwide.'
