Maybe the moss is dead too? Your photos don't give a lot away. |

No it wasn't dead. Sorry for my incompetence, we don't all have super duper cameras. |

Sorry JoulesH, I didn't mean to be rude.
It looks like it could be some sort of fungal growth in some of your pics.
The hairy stuff could be mycelial but I'm no expert on moss or fungi (or
anything else, to be honest - including photography). |

Mystery solved -I had sent a sample to the County Natural History collection and you were right PetetheBloke - it's fungal. He got a second and third opinium too. It's the mycelium (ozonium) of Coprinus domesticus. thanks |
