I recently took a trip to Alaska and The gray/white lichen were every where but I never found out the name either and it is driving me nuts.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17207206048122517482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2662118368553266438.post-1092926136855459382011-01-03T15:57:36.485-05:002011-01-03T15:57:36.485-05:00Just took a walk along some old bridal paths this ...Just took a walk along some old bridal paths this morning and there's an area of old dying trees and bushes which are covered with lichens of various colours, in particular the fruticose-type seems to be everywhere. I've never really looked at these things much until I got a macro lens. Should make for some interesting pictures when the weather improves!<br /><br />Thank you for giving me the motivation to get out there and look around!<br /><br />Best regards<br /><br />GavinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2662118368553266438.post-61895853298205335512010-04-27T07:45:27.388-04:002010-04-27T07:45:27.388-04:00What good fun you had.

Nice photos.squirrelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12297406366801045392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2662118368553266438.post-89702789162143951272010-04-26T21:11:03.758-04:002010-04-26T21:11:03.758-04:00Dang!
