Lichen?

False Turkey-tail Fungus

I happened to notice this fungus growing on a still standing dead tree the other day.  Fungus must have a photosynthetic partner to create lichen.  Though in the forest, the sun hits the tree in the mornings providing a good place for the algae to grow on the fungus.  I would like to watch this scene to see what transpires.  Will a lichen emerge?
