Three tiny white mushrooms, each about half a centimeter tall, grow up from the needly forest floor. The mushrooms are so small as to be almost transparent.

A photo of an old stump, where bright mosses throw up little seedling shoots from the top, and lipstick lichens (pale green with a red flowering body) coat the sides.

Good afternoon, my dudes and dudes-is-gender-agnostic-so-it-applies-to-everybody's-identity!

Today's walk featured the tiniest little #mushrooms and some #lipstickLichen. Happy little forest buddies.

Cheers y'all.

Candlesnuff fungus has white tips on black stalks and these are living amongst green moss including stairstep moss. The fungus is found in winter months and helps wood decay.

Lipstick lichen (tall greyish green spikes without red caps in this example) are surrounded by tiny liverworts which are fleshy and round. A bright green spindly moss, possibly scotch moss, is in the lower left.

Two tiny brown mushrooms with off-center caps grow on a dark brown pinecone from a Douglas fir tree. They are aptly-named pine cone mushrooms.

Tall greyish green scaley spindles of lichen, some with bright red tips, are growing on a brown tree trunk. Small liverworts also grow on the tree. They have small rounded flat leaves.
