User's notes

Take your pick! I was particularly intrigued by the red moss/liverwort, which is shown wet and dry (but unfortunately not very clearly).

Frullania is the red, leafy liverwort. I suggest making the closer photo (#2) of the dry stage the prime photo for this sighting, but certainly keep the drawn-back photo for it shows the substrate and setting very nicely.
