Thanks everyone, was Re: Added a photo

Hi everyone,

Thanks for your replies. Since my original posting 2 years ago, I had
worked out that it was a Cladonia, but hadn't felt comfortable with
any species name. I know it's hard to ID some things to species from
just a photo. I'm pretty good with most natural history
subjects(especially plants and fungi), but I don't have any field
guides to lichens, so I'm fairly lost when it comes to them.

Hello Jack, Thanks for that ID. I checked the image on your site, and it does look very similar. By the way, the gray, cracked mass in that shot is, I think, a...
