During a morning walk I noticed a dirt ridge in the forest.
From a distance it didn't look very inviting.
But there was a lot to see there, like this special moss and so much more. It's Powder Gun Moss (Diphyscium foliosum)!
The spore capsules of this moss remain close to the ground, it builds no long sporophytes, waiting for rain drops. If a raindrop hits a capsule a cloud of spores will be released.
A "powder gun"!
