Lichens

In the arboretum again – two species of lichen on this piece of bark.

The grey one is possibly Greenshield lichen while the orange one is, as far as I can ascertain, Candleflame Lichen (Candelaria concolor)

Found while out birding.

VERY similar to Common Oak Lichen which grows here, but in France this is collected commercially for fragrances that are used in perfumes.
