Dalgety Bay, NT1683 - 155

A few more additions and now I'm back at work I can finally sort out some picture editing. Less playing out though, so that's not so good. I have plenty of material on hand for ID though. It's been nice working some different habitat and it looks like I'll do slightly better on bryophytes this year. Last year was a very dull year in that respect

Cylindrobasidium laeve and its teardrop spores

Don't see that every day - Calathus rotundicollis toothed claw

Riccardia chamaedryfolia 

Fissidens taxifolius

Orthotrichum diaphanum - only one with white hairpoints

Numbers:
152 flowering plant Typha latifolia Bulrush
153 flowering plant Urtica dioica Common Nettle
154 bird Vanellus vanellus Lapwing
155 bird Turdus philomelos Song Thrush

Also I should put this here before I start tweaking it, since I always modify targets as time goes on and it's nice to have a record

  1. Glad you are up for the challenge again this year. And a new square should keep your interest levels going all year.
