Usnea strigosa
It has nice, large apothecia that start out green and seem to lighten with age. One of at least a dozen species of lichen I found on this tree, indicating good air quality.

Thanks for the nomination! And thanks Mark!
Nice series Machi.
Your spotting has been nominated for the Spotting of the Week. The winner will be chosen by the Project Noah Rangers based on a combination of factors including: uniqueness of the shot, status of the organism (for example, rare or endangered), quality of the information provided in the habitat and description sections. There is a subjective element, of course; the spotting with the highest number of Ranger votes is chosen. Congratulations on being nominated!
