Moss Sporophyte
Another in the "walk to the bins" series. It was a nice warm spring day.so I wandered back more slowly than of late. I was particularly looking at the Lichen on the dry stone wall.
I noticed some sporophytes on one of the mosses but they were over the top of the wall and I couldn't get a decent shot. Then I noticed this single one just to the side of where I had been looking. As the name sporophyte suggests the capsule contains the spores, the moss equivalent of seeds.
