Vireya's Blog: Tiny

Sunday, September 30, 2012

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.

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.; October 3, 2012 at 12:49 PM
