Lichen 2

No need to go to exotic climes to find weird and extraordinary plants. Whenever I remember to focus down and look at the microcosm a little I am always entranced with these wonderful little fungi. If you have a few minutes read HERE what Wikipedia has to say about these fascinating plants, which are actually two kinds of organism merged indissolubly together. Today's photo is again from my recent stroll in Thetis Lake Regional Park.

    You must have quite the macro lens. How big, or small, is this plant?
