    Lynn,
    I’m admiring your library (and posts and images, followed link to here from CalPhotos), but noticed what may be considered a Freudian Slip, Africa being substituted for California in the title of the Thomas Belzer listing.
    Cheers!

    Thanks, Lee. Yep, a slip of some sorts for sure. My book “library” is far from complete – taking photographs takes precedence most of the time.

    I was wondering if you could tell me what that bright orange looking mossy stuff is that I see growing on the side of the freeways in southern california. I don’t remember ever seeing it before.

    I am guessing, because I cannot visualize what you are referring to — possibly Dodder.
