Polytrchum piliferum and Bryum argenteum at Braefoot Point
With many other mosses on the boulders and burnt gorse regeneration area. Shown at the bottom here is the abundant Funaria hygrometrica, typical of burnt ground. Those mosses on the ground will presumably give way to vascular plants in time, but they're enjoying themselves now. Also among the mossy mix is a good scattering of Heath Groundsel, which you can just make out below the gorse.

Juncus bulbosus (Bulbous Rush) and Lophocolea semiteres in the Cullaloe Hills
The plant from which last post's bug was taken, this was growing in the ditch beside the path under the mossy embankment
The liverwort Lophocolea semiteres was also not far off th epath, growing principally at the base of a large conifer. It appears to be new to the county (edit: confirmed). This is the male plant below, but female plants were also there.
