Lichens are fascinating growths, says Duncan Wright, from PALE - that’s Petersfield Area Lichen Enthusiasts.

Lichen are everywhere on the Heath - on the trees but also pioneering species also growing on the bins and you'll even find them on the wall by the Post Office. 

Duncan tells Mike Waddington all about them and the awe they inspire under the magnifying glass. 

Duncan gives talks  with his colleague Peter Bisset and he gives a lively interview here.
