Photo of the Week: lichens

Yeah, I like lichens.

Do lichens like Mike? I like to think so. If I was a tree, I would like to have some lichens, and would perhaps feel like I was naked without them.

What can I liken a patch to lichens to? They are like a likable little colony of fungal tykes, all alike, as they slowly hike up their tree bark or boulder reich.

Do you like lichens? Click my pic for a close up, if you too like.
