I was walking along Deschutes National Forest and saw a bunch of these hairy fibers dangling from what I assumed were pine trees. Is this the stringy lichen, Old Man's Beard?

Here’s a long shot for the headz- but does anyone (on the west coast or SW of North America) have access to acorns from evergreen oaks? I will pay you to mail them to me if you’re confident in the species. CA native ones are easy enough to come by, but any other species is difficult to source

Not sure what kind though.... about 65-70 ft tall.

It's been pretty warm these past few weeks on the West Coast of Scotland (mostly!) and I found this 3-winged key on my walk this morning. I've never seen anything like that before - apparently if the tree is under stress it can happen. Would this hot summer weather be affecting the tree ir would it be stress from something else?

Edit: This is from a sycamore maple (don't know how to change the title, only the post - sorry!)

Found in Edinburgh Scotland in a church cemetery. I was mesmerized because it's not really a pine tree

In Arkansas

Recently hiked the north head trail in st johns and was wondering what wood was used for the staircase/trail. Is it cedar?
