Mosses & Lichens at The Farm

These are mosses and lichens photographed at our farm between April 21 to 28, 2007, for the Blogger BioBlitz.
Think of them as being my voucher specimens for mosses and lichens seen while blitzing around the farm.
I'll be adding to the photo collection throughout the week as I have time to sort through my images each day.
To see the other galleries of flora and fauna photographed during the blitz, go here.
