Close-up of bright green moss covered in tall thin sporophyte stems with tiny capsule tips, growing on a decaying log in an early spring forest near Ithaca, New York. Background shows blurred trees and the Varna cliffs.

Look at this moss 👀🌿

Zoom in — those tiny stems with little caps are moss sporophytes, getting ready to release spores. This is how moss spreads and slowly carpets the forest floor.

Found just outside Ithaca, NY today.

Follow me for more quiet trail moments 🌱

This is one of my favorite moments of the year in NY — that quiet shift between seasons.

ICE agents showed up at airports across the country this morning. Most seemed to have no clear purpose just standing around. Apparently the only goal was to make travelers uneasy with federal agents hovering around.
