Even in the darkest #winter, there are #colours in our #naturepark #VosgesDuNord. You find them on #wood, mostly #DeadWood. #WinterSolstice #fungi #lichensubscribe

#GreenElfcup Chlorociboria aeruginascens (blueish-green), #DryRot (brown) and #YellowScale (yellow).

The beautiful yellow #lichen Xanthoria parietina is resistant to #pollution and used as a #biomonitor for heavy metals and #nitrogen pollution. You find it often near agriculture because it looks for high nitrogen levels in the air.

@mogwai_poet is a thing (see wiki) - it's fungal rot of timber, and not so much to do with water.
