In the far west Pacific Northwest we live in a rainy climate. Rain is common and there is a saying here, "You can tell the tourists, they carry umbrellas." It is just part of our lives. It does give us some very interesting mosses and lichens. A sunny day makes the moss glow!

So furry and fuzzy!
What pretty moss! My husband and I spent a rainy honeymoon on the Olympic Peninsula (Washington); and, in some of our photos, we're almost glowing in the gloom in our red and yellow ponchos! The Pacific Northwest is certainly a magnificent part of our country! Have a good weekend!
Besides being pretty I'm sure that moss is a valuable food source for wildlife. Lovely contrast in textures!
The mosses are beautiful with the sun shining on them; there is so much interesting texture shown in your photos.
I smiled at your comment about how to recognize tourists.

Such a great texture and gorgeous colour
How pretty! That looks like the sort of moss you find out West - the Hoh rainforest and that area. It's so mossy there it feels like walking on sponges!
I love the moss! It's so beautiful. Magical, really. :)
I love our moss, even though I know that if I stand still for too long I'll be soon covered in moss too!
Moss is so very pretty. Love the light shining through the fine fibres of the moss.
I LOVE moss and of course also grew up surrounded by it in damp England! I tries to start a moss garden here. also to grow moss between my stepping stones, but no such luck - far too hot I guess in the Summer months!
