Oh cute, that is if you find lichen cute.

Very unusual. I've never seen anything like that around here where we live. It is rather pretty though isn't it?

It really is miniature. Nature is so wonderful. Since blogging, I have been looking around me, even the grass around me are not spared from my camera...hehehe. Have a nice day, Tom.

These are plentful around here, I found these in a local quarry. Old disused quarries seem to have their own little eco-system... I'll show a few more tomorrow.

Interesting shots, Tom. I also enjoyed the series on Three Stags Head Pub.

I guess I have never seen this type of lichen or if I did I wasn't paying any attention. Thanks for showing me this close up.

Nice macros, Tom! You have a better eyesight than I have - I can't remember seeing lichen like this.

What great macros Tom! The lichens are so easy to overlook but they are so intriguing. Nice post and photos.
Have a great week and smiles.
