LICHEN


Lichen (Lepraria incana)

Observation
This picture of a walnut tree with lichen was taken from my neighbor's backyard. The fungus on this tree is green in color, basically flat and has an almost paint like appearance. The tree is not entirely covered with the lichen but it is present from the bottom to the top of the tree.

As I was observing this tree for lichen, I noticed a squirrel climbing the tree searching for walnuts.
