Sphaerophorus

 Fencepost of the Week #236

A splendidly shaggy fencepost capped with Spaherophorus globosus - which is a lichen I don't often see on fenceposts.

Dalriada Project Post

 Fencepost of the Week #224

When your path marker-posts look like this, you know you are in for a boggy time! ^_^

These posts, show the insigna of the Dalriada Project, which built a path network around The Kilmartin Glen area. 

The path was new (and posts completely devoid of lichen) in 2010. 

The path I took - between Cairnbaan and Dunadd - is holding up fairly well. It has some really excellent plastic boardwalk sections, but there are some slippery stone slab sections and some very slippery wooden plank sections, which would make me shy of recommending it for anyone without good balance.
