Anyone know what this stuff is, noticed it growing on the trunk and major branches of one of our trees.

What sort of tree is it?
Looks like a lichen - I never worry about those.

It's a copper beech, my only concern was that I did notice last summer that some of the limbs hadn't leafed up so think they're dead. They're getting until next summer n if they don't come back I'll have them off the tree I think.

Just wondering if it could be a fungus that developed from a bird poo with elderberry or black currant traces in the poo ?
