The logging behind our house makes an easy spot to look at upper tree canopy mosses and zonation of those moss. I think I got another shot of the moss that makes up the bird's nest of this area.

I found several Liverworts at Devil's Lake. This Liverwort I thought was Scapania. It was on a rotten log firmly attached to the bark. Under the scope it had dentate leaf margin and an underlobe. Many mosses and liverworts grew intertwined here. The leaf pattern was imbricate.The branching pattern was also pinnate.

Wow this stuff is tiny. I found it in my petri dish and wondered what it was. I had to put it under the compound scope to actually see it. I was excited when I recognized it as a liverwort on our list.

Time: 1400
Date: 17 January 2012
Locality: 47.07231888222315, -122.97889709472656
Route: Walked outside rear entrance of Lab I Building at the Evergreen State College
This species was found on Acer circinatum (Vine Maple), about 1/3 of the way up the tree. The maple is in an open school courtyard type area on the edge of a conifer forest. Another bryophyte species on the Vine Maple is a suspected Orthotrichum. The species found was initially confirmed by observation to be a liverwort, and upon looking in 'Plants of the Pacific Northwest Coast' and keying out, confirmed to be a Porella. The species is unknown at this point. It was snowing on and off at the time that this species was found.

I guess it's always moss season for some people, but they look their best when it's wet. Need to get that CA moss book so I can ID these...

chris3Description
This bat sleeps up in the front porch of our home in Swan valley, ID. I think it's only there in the summer. I have no idea what kind he is, any ideas? I know scale is tough in that image. he's about 2-3" from head to base of tail I think. Probably closer to 2" really. He's pretty small.
