Pale green bearded fruticose lichen on tree branch - perhaps Usnea or Ramalina species, & flattened foliose lichen - maybe Parmotrema perlatum.

---

The fluffy beared-looking lichen is a 'Fruticose' tree lichen. It could be an Usnea type [? U. esperantia or U. subfloridana] or maybe a form of Ramalina (but they have flattened branches). - The flattened lichen hugging the branches / twigs are a 'Foliose' tree lichen. Perhaps Parmotrema perlatum syn. Parmotrema chinense, Parmelia perlata
