Lichen At Honeyman State Park
Lane County, Oregon As A Campsite Place A lichen is a composite organism that arises from algae or cyanobacteria living among filaments of multiple fungi in a symbiotic relationship. The combined lichen has properties different from those of its component organisms. Lichens come in many colours, sizes, and forms. The properties are sometimes plant-like, but lichens are not plants. [from wikipedia] |

Lichen on a svelte twig blew feather-like in the same breeze that rippled the lake behind it.

Small tufts of lichen appear to have been blown across the lake and caught by a branch over the water.
Actually the lichen likely grew directly on the branch after spores landed there.
