Re: Lichens on apple tree branches

Hi Hedera, the same lichen is in all three of your photo's - Xanthoria parietina, usually with yellow lobes but they can be nearly grey in shaded situations.

The second photo shows a blue-grey lichen below the Xanthoria which is probably a Physcia but it needs a clearer photo to be sure.
