I collected some (what I think is) Sunburst Lichen (xanthoria sp.) and have attempted to extract the dye. I gathered quite a bit from fallen branches in the yard. Trying the water method first but I know I'll have to get ammonia at some point. Been day dreaming of harvesting "grandpa blackthorn's lichen" since I was a wee girl.
