Shadowed #lichen in front of a sunny late afternoon meadow. All natural light, even if it doesn't look like it.
Taking care of friend's dog and I captured this on our walk. iNat says “Pelt Lichen” or better yet “Dog Lichen”. Wikipedia took it one step further, “Because its reproductive bodies resemble the teeth of a dog, it was used as a treatment for rabies in the European Middle Ages”. No mention if said treatment was any good.
