yes it is one of the lichens and harmless to the tree. As Jimmy says its a sign of clean air. I have it on many shrubs and I just leave it alone. Some lichens are really pretty.

Lichen growing on the branches is totally harmless. The result of clean air. You can just rub off with your fingers if you wish.
