Looking straight down on a green water bottle cap there are a plethora of little pink egg-shaped heather flowers. Sprigs of heather greenery are tucked into bare space in cap.

I’m sure everyone makes little flower arrangements in bottle caps. I’m not weird. Yes, yes I am. #capoflife series #FlowerReport (USDA zone 8) 🌱💐🌿 iPhone 12 mini, macro clip lens
A macro photo of an opaque water bottle cap filled with tiny flowers. Our view is an angled view down, capturing about 1/4 of the cap. The largest flower is a violet, followed by fancy baby’s breath. The small yellow flowers are dill and the tiny, 4 petal flowers are sweet alyssum

An opaque water bottle cap fills the frame as we look down. The background is black with parts of a spiked flower scattered. The cap is filled with pure white, 1-2 mm buds, reminiscent of unopened tulips. Each tiny bud has a bitty green stem cup. Photo has a romantic feel due to the soft shading of white

It has been a fun day of tiny things! Another water bottle cap pic. This is Sagina subulata, commonly called, Irish moss. It’s a flowering plant, definitely not a moss, but tiny and pretty. Todd, the land snail has stuck around, so he got his pic taken too. 🐌🌱#capoflife #series
Close photo from above of a water bottle cap which holds tiny green Irish moss and Todd, the land snail.

Macro, our view is slightly angled down on most of an opaque water bottle cap. It holds several pinhead-sized bright yellow flowers that are cuddled at their bases in green. The flowers are in various stages of blooming. The bottle cap imprint is visible under them.

Bottle cap of the day pic features toothed moss (Plagiomnium cuspidatum) and Todd, the land snail. Todd was the perfect model. Might be because he’s nocturnal. Whatever. 🌿🌱🐌 #invertfest #capoflife series iPhone 12 mini
Very close, top view of an opaque water bottle cap resting on sparkly, dark brown sand. The cap is filled and partially overflowing with moss which is a dark to bright green and grows in a line upwards. Leaves are alternating. Nestled in the middle of it all is a sleeping brown and tan land snail. The tone of the photo is bright and serene.

I like the dichotomy of complexity and simplicity in this pic! Nasturtium seed germinating and placed in a water bottle cap upon a bed of Irish moss. #capoflife series

#capoftheday
Very close top view of an opaque plastic water bottle cap. The cap sits on a dense mat of very green Irish moss that almost looks fake in its uniformity. Inside the cap is wet sphagnum moss used to germinate the seed, which has been placed on its side, on the cap. The seed body is in the center with roots and first stem spread from the top of photo down to the bottom.

Water bottle cap almost filled with pill bugs (Armadillidiidae vulgare). Today I learned these little dudes are not insects! They are crustaceans. Hence, their need for 75% humidity. Next water bottle cap pic will not be moving. Try putting pill bugs in a cap. Go on. I’ll wait. 🦀🦐 #Capoflife series

Bladder snails (Physella acuta) in a water bottle cap. Keeping snails in a cap for pictures was like putting kittens in a basket. No one stayed. 🐌🐚😆 #capoflife #series

A close, top view of an opaque water bottle cap sitting on a brown rock. Inside are 5 very light green and white column shapes that resemble folded cafe umbrellas. At the base of these "umbrellas" are bunches of the tiniest, yellowish-green, circular flowers you can think of. The umbrellas are Star jasmine (Trachelospermum jasminoides), and the tiny flowers are Dill (Anethum graveolens)

A top view of an opaque water bottle cap with blue sand floats on top of water. There is a yellow, red and orange bud in the bottle cap. It resembles a miniature sunflower. Noticeable just beneath the water surface are green plants and an iridescent blue guppy. Beneath is another guppy, this one orange. The setting is tranquil

Please enjoy these clovers (Trifolium dubium) arranged in a water bottle cap 🌱 #FlowerReport #capoflife iPhone 12 mini
A very close, downward view of a green water bottle cap filled with an arrangement of clovers (Trifolium dubium). The leaves grow in a slender heart shape. They are a deep green. Within the leaves are placed bursts of tiny, yellow rolled flowers for each bud. There are also budding leaves that resemble the shape of Venus Fly-trap (or taco, if you prefer)

A very close, top view of an opaque water bottle cap sitting on a bed of cream-colored, ridged leaves. The cap takes most of the frame and contains small bunches of four-petal flowers with bright yellow centers. The leaves in the bunches are long, smooth and tapered. Setting is contentment. Is that a setting? Feedback always welcome for alt text! Side, very close view of an opaque water bottle cap sitting on a bed of cream colored leaves from a spindle bush. Inside the cap and emerging from it are the white, four-petal flowers.
