Nice photo, but what you have is some sort of bracket fungus, not a lichen! I'm sure one of our fungi experts will identify it for you.

It is a Trametes (Turkey Tail) But I don't know which one there are quite a few different colour ones

(Smacks head in embarrassment.) Bracket fungus... I should have known that!
Thanks for the id, Aeshna and Nellie Dee.

It is possibly by the colour in the fungi it is Trametes versicolour, check it out, Duncan

That turkey tail is a lovely example, Harold!
I thought I'd better redeem myself and post a photo of some actual lichens! See a few days ago in the same woodland.

Lovely composition of the lichen with the Trametes.

Hi RB, I think this is a common type of lichen called Hypogymnia physodes you can check it out on line. Duncan

Dog Lichen - masses of it - obviously likes damp moss - it usually grows around the lawn here, not in the damp moss. Of course I could be totally wrong Dog Lichen by Helen Skelton, on Flickr
