Natural History Photographs


The village of Nore harbours a small but beautiful stave church, our target for Thursday 4 August. So far, any stave church we visited also had a grave yard with an old wall, richly overgrown with lichens, so I hoped for both - and found both! Around the church, I found three lichen species that rarely bear apothecia all having some: Parmelia saxatilis, Parmelia sulcataand Hypogymnia physodes.
