On top of a fence post, all covered in green

On top of a fence post,
all covered in green
I photographed lichens
That evolved before the Eocene.


On top of a FEEEEEENCEpost
all covered in moss
I photographed lichens
while the lurchers didn't get lost*.

I should come back here with a party of 28mm adventurers, they'd look good in this.

* it would scan better if they had got lost, but in fact they were both very good even when there was A BUNNY.   And let us face facts, this song is not going to be saved by the last line scanning slightly better.  It is a lost cause.

WOW!

I'm always telling people that horsetails and magnolias are ancient, but those really look the part.

I can't decide whether it's trying to grow golf tees or aliens!

Oh, those are great shots.

Great pics!

Maybe: As the lurchers weren't lost

Those are so cool. I have a thing for lichen.

That's exactly what I thought as soon as I saw that first photo. :-D

Although if our party ends up in a sinister forest of unnatural-looking pale leafless trees, and gets eaten to death by its fell denizens, I'm blaming you. For balance, maybe you should seek out and photograph a nice wholesome mini-landscape, too, where miniatures can cavort in carolling joy, dappled in sparkly sunshine.

So cool and creepy.

Your song is better than my coffee song:

Little bit of coffee
How is the coffee
Making some coffee
Where is my coffee now

I love this lichen! Weird thing to say maybe, but it's true. Also sang your song to the correct tune :)

Oh it's a lovely lichen akin to a tiny forest filled with minute unseen blessed creatures.

That sounds like the song I made for my last foster dog before he was rehomed. It went:

You are a Ruggie,
You are a Ruggie,
You are a Ruggie and you like to Rug!

EARWORMS FOR ALL

It's an unusually elaborate tiny forest...

[bunn.livejournal.com]

That would require sun. :-(

Thank you!

I fear the verse is a lost cause whatever!

[bunn.livejournal.com]

Don't they! Although I presume that before the Eocene, it had to find something other than fenceposts to grow on...
