11:00 hours. The park at Fir Meadows. At the end of Canyon Road take a left and it is the very next left after the railroad tracks. It was cold and raining. The temperature was about 10 degrees celcius. It had been raining for a couple of days. I took a quick walk around the park and collected a moss off of cement that I believe lookd like Ceratodon purpureus. Our guest lecturer the other day, Shana, talked about this moss extensively, so I had an idea of what it looked like and the type of habitat it would grow in. The moss was also growing on the ground around the cement.

Park at Fir Meadows. Found what I believe to be Red Roof Moss growing on cement and on the ground around a cement block at the edge of the park. It is amall and growing in tufts. The sporophytes are reddish with upright capsules. The leaves are lance shaped and come to a sharp point.
