Red-coat British soldiers (lichen) at Holmes Bend

The beautiful plant life found on a log at the Holmes Bend area of Green River Lake in Adiar County, and photographed by Lindsey Wilson cyclist, Ryan Storm, has been identified by L.H. Murrell, who writes:
"Found on Google, a site showing similar red-blooming lichens, growing on a rail fence in Pickens Co., South Carolina," writes L.H. Murrell, "The comment was that the red-tipped lichens, probably Cladonia cristatella, are known as British soldiers lichen."
