Winter lichen

I'm appreciating the vivid colours and textures of the various lichen on the bare winter bushes, trees and rocks.

  1. As I grow older, I am appreciating lichen more and more. It kind of snuck up on me; I'm just glad I didn't miss the boat entirely.

  4. Such beautiful photographs.

    We stopped to admire the most amazing lichen covering a huge old tree branch in the woods yesterday. It was so silvery and magical, we were all in awe. Unfortunately our camera is broken at the moment so we couldn't get a pic.
