There are spots on these trees!
Are they sick?
There are big white splotches all over the trunks of these!
Nope
They’re not sick
Those are just lichens
What are lichens?
Lichens
Pronounced Like-ens
are alive
And they only thrive
When a fungus and an algae work together
In a symbiotic relationship, they both live better
They work together and soak up the sun
And they come in all colors!
There are red, white, and green ones!
