These look like a bunch of liverwort sporophytes, possibly crestwort?

Carrie @carrieaceae.bsky.social · 03/04/2025

Do any bryophyte or lichen people know what this is? My best guess is the fruiting body of a bryophyte, but I can't figure it out

White/translucent thin stalks coming out of a moss. There is a dark brown nodule on the end of the stalk, it is split in half on one stalk. Most dark brown nodules look solid but one has a spore like mass emerging out of it

I took a tidepool foraging class today

I was hemming these lovely vintage sailor jeans. Measured and marked where I wanted the hem, then cut the fabric without thinking/leaving any seam allowance. Cried. Regrouped. Now I have this nice thick cuff :)

When writing alt text, is it safe to assume the reader will have the context of what is written for the first photo, for any succeeding photos?

I think this is an entire mole in an owl pellet? It's massive. I hope the owl was ok!

I saw Lepidoderma tigrinum today, which had previously only existed to me in the form of my highly accurate artistic renderings. It loves bryophytes!! #myxomycetes #myxies
