Commonly called Black-Tufted Rock Moss. Referring to brighter green moss pictured directly below Red Roof Moss (the one with all the large sporophytes). Difficult to see in photo, but sample was almost black on the bottom and brighter green on the top and un-branched. As you can see in photo, was growing on a rocky, periodically-wet substrate.
Commonly called Red Roof Moss or Fire Moss. Difficult to see in this picture, but I found this moss all over the bridge, suspected it to be Red Roof Moss because it commonly grows in a variety of usually inhospitable habitats (like sidewalks). Further, it had the distinctive red-green coloring of the Red Roof Moss. Also examined the sporophyte under the dissecting microscope, and recognized the distinctive shape of its capsule.

Seen on multiple different grasses along pathway.
Very difficult to see in photo, but saw distinctive red markings in flight.
All (at least 4-5) gathered by trail, in woodchips/grasses beneath saplings.
