Brilliant green Lobaria sp. This one is smoothe without isidia. For some reason, I don’t see too many Lobaria around this lake. Perhaps I am not looking at the right place. Lake Shirakoma, Nagano #Lichen #FungiFriends

Almost 4 years ago we translocated Lobaria pulmonaria lichen from a fallen bough of ash tree at Haweswater Naddle - 264 small pieces onto 80 different suitable trees nearby. Today we started a second round of check ups, removing the mesh and staples. After 4 trees, most were doing well:-) #LichenGBI

Lobaria amplissima is extremly rare in Germany. 2020 one of the old trees died and the bark with Lobaria fall on the ground. So I took it and fixed it with binding wire on another old tree near by (without the Lobaria). Yesterday I was there and pleasantly surprised, that it worked very good.

Lovely Lobaria! The bright green one is Lobaria pulmonaria, but I'm not sure about the dark green one. Any experts out there? #lichens
A leafy looking lichen on a tree with moss. The lichen looks like big wet dark green leaves.

Did some outdoor sketching to see whether I still had the touch (I used to do graphic design like 40 years ago). And I foolishly chose Lobaria, which is kinda difficult to draw, since I found a large clump on the ground. #Lichen #FungiFriend #NatureJournaling

Lichen watching for today. This is Lobaria tuberculata, a majestic lichen found in the wetland area. Characterized by the dense isidia that covers the lobe ridge. This colony is huge and ancient. Sugadaira Kogen, Ueda, Nagano #Lichen #FungiFriends

There's always a wow moment when arriving on the west coast of Scotland as there's usually lots of Lobaria pulmonaria and Ricasolia virens to be found on trees, rocks and walls. #LichenGBI
