Mosses at Trout Brook Valley

I led a moss walk at the end of April at Trout Brook Valley, which is part of the Aspetuck Land Trust in southwestern Connecticut. Unfortunately we had a pretty dry April and the mosses were a little crispy. However, we did locate some that we lush and moist on this drippy rock wall. 


Here we are checking out some mosses growing on a rock. 


Hand-lenses in action!


Thanks to everyone who attended the walk and to Heather Williams Walklet for sending these photos.
