Note the squigly dark lines on some of the lichen, likely Grahois genus, such as Graphis scripta.. Also, some of the lichen has been chewed on.

Was out experimenting with a long lens. When the ducks I'd intended to photograph left, I gave some close ups of lichen a try. Was doing it handheld as expected to be following ducks; so, my close-ups shot in burst mode varied a bit in their focus plane. Did a focus stack using 3 of them in Photoshop for this photo of fruiting lichen on driftwood.
Lecanora sp. on the bark of a balsam fir near the edge of a conifer swamp. The lichen (Arthonia?) at the bottom appears to be diseased. Another Lecanora, possibly L. symmicta, with round-topped yellow apothecia is between the two. Thin black lines mark the edges of each lichen.
Growing on a young (55-year-old) white pine at the edge of a shrub carr on a rainy April day. Lecanora sp. may be Lecanora symmicta.
Lecanora sp.(?) on the bark of a large quaking aspen at the edge of a forest.
Lecanora sp. (top) and Buellia (?) sp. on the bark of a balsam fir near the edge of a conifer swamp. The lichen on the bottom may not be Buellia, and the black apothecia might be those of an infectious fungus that parasitizes lichens.
