Lichen

A patch of foliose lichen on a tree trunk is another spot of colour in December. Thanks to VictorSwan http://www.pbase.com/victorswan this has been identified as Flavoparmelia caperata.

And the yellow lichen on the bark is another touch of colour too. Quite the challenge this month but you have risen to it.

Very lovely textures in this lichen and bark.
