Large growth of pale green-yellow Evernia lichen, with dense, textured branches. Whitish aspen trunks visible in background, with some light blue sky, brownish rushes, and a blue wetland visible. Scattered snow on the ground.
Closeup of Evernia lichen, with crinkled, branchin thallus, with lots of texture, isidia and soralia. Pale green to yellowish.
What looked like a tuft of Beard (Usnea) Lichens turned out to be one of the larger growths of (I believe) Boreal Oakmoss (Evernia Mesomorpha) that I have found.
