Bryophyte photo of the week
Polytrichum commune

A very common moss, it's proper common name supposedly Common Haircap Moss, for some reason, though most people I know call it Star Moss.... for more obvious reasons....

Here, the droplets of a dewy morning were still held between it's leaves.



You can find more images of Bryophytes, mainly from Argyll, in my album at:
