Coming up from the beach at Oyster Bay through the dunes towards the little woods, I found that the lichens and mosses have expanded their footprint; they've moved out of deep shade and into the open area at the edge of the dunes. These mosses, lichens, and mushrooms were all growing in semi-shade; I found some out in the open, far from the trees.

| Lichen agaric, Lichenomphalia umbellifera. The dark green coating on the wood is the algal component of the lichen. |
 |
| Moss sporophytes and two species of Cladonia lichens. |
 |
| An old log covered with pixie-cup Cladonia lichens. |
 |
| Rusty-gilled polypore, Gloeophyllum sepiarium. AKA Conifer Mazegill |
 |
| An old, twisty log end, wrapped in moss and Cladonia lichens. |

Subiendo desde la playa en Oyster Bay, cruzando las dunas hacia el bosquecito, descubrí que los musgos y líquenes han extendido su territorio; donde antes se veían en la sombra profunda bajo los árboles, ahora han colonizado la orilla de las dunas, con poca sombra.
- Lichenomphalia umbellifera. La masa verde oscuro que cubre la madera es el componente algal del lichen; los honguitos son el cuerpo fructífero de este liquen.
- Esporofitos de musgo y dos especies de líquenes Cladonia
- Tronco viejo cubierto de líquenes copa de hada, Cladonia sp.
- Políporo, Gloeophyllum sepiarium.
- Tronco torcido envuelto en musgos y líquenes Cladonia.

I'm having to moderate all comments because Blogger seems to have a problem notifying me. Sorry about that. I will review them several times daily, though, until this issue is fixed.
Also, I have word verification on, because I found out that not only do I get spam without it, but it gets passed on to anyone commenting in that thread. Not cool!
