The Nærøysund Bridge (Norwegian: Nærøysund bru) is a suspension bridge that crosses the Nærøysundet strait between the islands of Marøya and Innervikna in Nærøysund in Trøndelag county, Norway. It is located about 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) south of the town of Rørvik. Together with the Marøysund Bridge, it connects the islands of Vikna to the mainland. The Nærøysund Bridge is 701 metres (2,300 ft) long, the main span is 325 metres (1,066 ft), and the maximum clearance to the sea is 41 metres (135 ft). The bridge has 17 spans.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
