The fungus growth on the tree bark below is Lichen, one species of fungus: another name for it is black stone flower. It’s said to be commonly used as spice in India for meat or vegetarian dishes. So much in nature is edible, if only you knew what it was and how to safely consume it.

Wonderful photo for today’s entry 😀
Thank you!
