Lovely lichens

A duo of completely different lichens - first up is Aspicilia contorta, which is a common concrete lover and which I found on the concrete buttress of the wall in the car park area. The last two pictures is on top of the wall and I believe is the older, more settled version where the "jelly tots" have all flattened down into tilework





The second is a lovely Cladonia chlorophaea with chunky soredia. This is from Mossmorran though, amongst the heather.
