My family has just left, had a wonderful time. Will catch up on comments over the next couple of days.

Lichen on old birch tree

Two lichens Physcia stellaris and Xanthoria parietina

While they were chopping down the evergreens in the car park the other day, they also cut loads of other trees back too. To make it worse they cut back the one tree that I always found loads of lovely lichen on. Oh well, I did at least find a substitute.

Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :O)

Simply because I like it.

Lichens, organisms that derive from the symbiosis, that is coexistence, between algae and fungi: there are thousands of species in the world, with different appearance and characteristics.

(012/365) Best viewed Large. I believe these to be Black Tar Lichen (which coats the rock like tar) & Orange Lichen. Found on rocks above the tideline on Baginbun beach.

Of every sort

over one billion lichens served

I take lots of pictures of moss and lichen, but then I don't put them on Flickr because I'm not sure they interest anyone. But I still like these miniature worlds on fenceposts and rocks.

Lecanoromycetes

Anyone from Tasmania would probably recognise these rocks as being from Bay of Fires, Binalong , Tasmania. There are some awesome photos around of BoF , but I was mesmerised by the rocks themselves. The orange is of course lichen. The name ‘Bay of Fires’ was given by an English explorer, Captain Tobias Furneaux when he sailed past in 1773 and spotted numerous Aboriginal fires along the coast.

We had 40c+ temps here today , in and out of the pool all the day, now we have thunder , lightning and thunderstorms. Love our Aussie weather 😉

Happy weekend everyone 👋

Or that’s what that far lichen reminds me of. Couldn’t get the focus any sharper as it was a bit of a miserable day.

Thanks for stopping

Macro Mondays theme '' Member's Choice : Into the Woods''

Into the woods! Well, not literally… We had more than our share of rain these days and the best I could do was to take a short stroll in one of my favorite parks. Walking around, looking desperately to find something worth taking, this small lichen (perhaps 2” wide) caught my attention. It was perfectly circular and grew on an old wooden fence. It reminded me of a miniature doily. I couldn’t resist and I took the shot.

Thank you everyone for your visits, faves, and kind comments

I saw this lichen in one of the outdoor areas of the National Botanic Gardens of Wales
