Wow, Will, that picture is amazing! Beautiful!
I really don’t know what it is but if I had to guess I would guess a parasitic plant growing on a tree in the Sierras, which I would call a Stag fern (for it’s antler appearance). We have a Stag fern out back on a tree and it looks nothing like that, but I like the name. :) Anyway, I’ll go with a beautiful parasite. Steve

That’s under the water in the ocean. I don’t know what kind of plant it is but I bet it doesn’t hurt as much as black sea urchins do – stepped on one of those suckers once – never again.

Hey Bumbles – That is the guess I expected. When I saw the photo I had taken I thought the same thing even though I new the answer is closer to Steve’s guess. Although I have to admit when I think of his name, “beautiful parasite”, I think less of a plant than a couple of people I have know over the years!

I’ll post the answer in the next WW post if anyone wants to add their own guess.

The white form is a piece of tree lichen that has fallen off and landed on the moss growing on a big rock below. It really struck me as looking like something under the ocean. In reality it was in a bone dry area on the side of one of our local mountains.
