Wow, Will, that picture is amazing! Beautiful!
Anyway, I’ll go with a beautiful parasite. Steve
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.

Good day!

Click on the “Green Earth” icon and it will open other EcoFriendly sites including yours.
Have a nice day!
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.
Bumbless last blog post..ON SPORTS ~ The Hall…
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.
Will, you are natural. Anna

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.
