Met this fella in Petaluma, California, walking up to the top of Hayes Lane. Look at that lichen-covered branch! (If you are ever in the area, visit that park, it has a fabulous view of the area! And a great place to watch vultures soar and kites hunt.)

Does the transmission also work through the nose when looking for Chaenotheca #lichen?

Lichens in all their beauty after the rain today.

In the rain the Hoary Rosette Lichen turns from grey to a vivid turquoise-blue. A beautiful little patch on a big old tree.

Today I am seeing my eye consultant, then my son is taking me for a dog walk with him and Elka. I expect there will be photos.
For now have some photos that I took when I was working in the wood on Monday. #Mosstodon #fungi #lichen
Bright pink crabapples. This tree was so odd: the crabapples were growing on short spurs all over the branches, so that it looked like a bright pink knobby mossy hedgehog tree. I couldn't get a good shot at it, but maybe I'll try again.

It's that time of year when the leaves are gone and the lichen and mosses growing on the tree branches take center stage

I have a gall like growth on a (fruiting) Physcia adscendens #lichen. Has anyone ever seen something like this?
Vezdaea leprosa #lichen - I think. At least it looks like the specimen I was shown on the last course by HB.
