Tiny

A trip to Ballarat for my mother's birthday, with a side trip to Lal Lal.
Tiny unidentified fungi amongst the moss.
Snake wattle (Acacia aculeatissima) in flower, if a little rain-bedraggled.
Sundew (Drosera sp.) about to flower.

    I think your first photo is a Cladonia (Pixie Cup Lichen). Great photo!

    Love your close detail shots. I imagine the fungi as tiny pixie houses.

    Thanks, all.

    Dee, thank you for putting me on the right track. yes, it does seem to be a Cladonia lichen, rather than a fungus as I thought.
