last stop, some crustose, or crust-like lichen :) they are often found on rocks, sidewalks, and other harsh environments. they are teeny tiny - too small for my camera to get any detail, even with a loupe!

next stop, we have a tiny fruiticose, or shrub-like, lichen. this one is pretty small and just getting started. it was tricky getting a clear picture while using 2 magnifying glasses and my phone camera
close up photo of a fruiticose lichen. it is hanging off the edge of some bark

first stop, this foliose, or leaf-shaped lichen. they are flat, thin, and have dark undersides. you can see its rhizines peeking out at the edges, helping it stay anchored in place :)

another moldy coffee (adhd is funny like that)
this time in a different substrate + environment, but still probably the same mold. if i had a lab id try to grow the mold to study it further, but i'll settle for these... "wild" samples

a photo of mold on the surface of coffee in a mug. there are many blue-green patches of mold, and the outer ring of the mug is lined with mold as well
