Or: Brain Salad Surgery
#macromonday

Explored 16 February, 2021
Waldorf salad, probably. The brainiest salad out there? Maybe for a melting skull that is pondering about The Meaning of Life... It certainly was a surgical challenge to extract a whole, undamaged kernel from those particularly small and hard Brandenburgian walnuts. There are many methods for opening and shelling walnuts and keep the nutmeat intact, and I tried something new after several failed (but delicious and healthy – walnuts are brain food, aren't they?) attempts: I soaked a few nuts in water overnight (to soften the shell) and then used the nutcracker from the top, not along the shelling line like I usually do – for the shelling line I used a knife. Sounds like quite the massacre, I know, but it worked :) As for the ice "cube"... Sorry, but I couldn't resist. I had to buy icecube trays online for this theme anyway, because I don't use ice in beverages (and therefore I didn't have an icecube tray at hand). And when I saw those skull-shaped trays, I knew I had to get them. I also ordered more traditional cube- and orb-shaped ones, so now I'm properly equipped when it comes to all things ice ;)
What I had in mind, of course, was a crystal-clear, perfectly-skulpted skull, and a perfectly placed walnut. At least I got one nicely placed brainy walnut (or nutty brain?) and a fairly recognisable skull out of four attempts. And boy, these ice skulls melt fast (and they move while doing so! Creepy...). I have images where you can see more of the walnut, but by the time more of that was visible, the skull was molten almost beyond recognition. So I chose the image where you can only see a little bit of the "walbrain" emerging from the skull, still covered by a thin layer of ice, and I hope that's enough "In Ice" to qualify for the theme. A rather charming small detail is the tiny (walnut) "hornlet" that appeared on the skull's forehead first – oh dear, who knows whose skull this once was... ;)
HMM, Everyone, and stay safe and cheerful!
Nüsse, ganz besonders Walnüsse, sind ja sehr gesund, Nervennahrung pur, besonders gut für die kleinen grauen Zellen – und ein halber Walnusskern sieht auch noch so aus. Aber eigentlich fing alles ganz harmlos an: Ich wollte was für's Thema machen, da ich aber nie Eiswürfel verwende, hatte ich auch keine entsprechende Form im Haus. Und mangels anderer Beschaffungsmöglichkeiten blieb mir nichts anderes übrig, als mich beim großen Piranha-Fluss umzusehen, wo mir prompt diese Schädelformen angezeigt wurden. Dabei hatte ich doch bloß "Eiswürfelform" eingegeben. Ob das was mit einer Suchanfrage für ein anderes MM-Thema ("Spiky") zu tun haben könnte? Und andere Leute bekommen lustige Tierformen angezeigt, wenn sie nach "Eiswürfelform" suchen? Egal, ich konnte natürlich nicht widerstehen, habe aber Alibi-halber auch noch Würfel- und Kugelformen mitbestellt. Denn wer weiß, was mir demnächst sonst noch auf die harmloseste Suchanfrage vorgeschlagen wird...
Was mir hier natürlich vorschwebte, war ein perfekt geformter, kristallklarer Schädel mit einem darin perfekt platzierten Gehirn, aber das wollte mir als Eiswürfel-Neuling noch nicht so recht gelingen. Immerhin hatte ich am Ende ein Exemplar, bei dem nicht nur der Schädel noch als solcher zu erkennen war, sondern auch noch ein Stück der Walnusshälfte sich in Relation zur Schädelschmelze rechtzeitig aus selbigem herauszuschälen begann (und das charmante kleine "Hörnchen" auf der Stirn hatte sich als Erstes hervorgewagt) – was übrigens einfacher war, als eine unversehrte Walnusshälfte aus zwar sehr schmackhaften, aber auch besonders kleinen und festen Brandenburger Walnüssen herauszuknacken. Eine fürwahr harte Nuss.

Looks like I found a 'brain' of somebody, so the owner can come forward ;-))
Very weird looking mushroom/fungus! It was about 10cm wide and 5cm tall.
Tried to find a name like 'brain fungus', but no results. So if you know, please let me know. Thanks !

When it comes to floating feathers, I am a feather brain...I love love love em. Was a windy day so it was blowing all around.

Happy Macro Monday!
Every time I see a turkey's caruncles I am reminded of the cerebral cortex with its many folds and grooves. Think they look a bit like...a brain spill? ;-)
Thank you for your visit, comments & faves! :-)
Common names for Tremella mesenterica include Yellow Brain Fungus, Golden Jelly Fungus, and Witches' Butter (although the last usually refers to the black fungus Exidia glandulosa).
T. mesenterica is a parasite. On the right side of the branch, the purplish fungus - Oak Crust (Peniophora quercina) - is its host.

Some of you may remember the MedievalRocker from a Saturday Self Challenge way back ( see the link in the first comment box ) . For the one shot a day group I thought he could have another airing as the pop-up oven-top studio was in use getting ready for this week's SSC shot .
Afraid to say his brain still hurts , the price a rock star has to pay !!
Nei giorni di nebbia puoi smettere per un attimo di guardare, puoi respirare, ed ascoltare…
chiudi gli occhi e concentrati sulle tue sensazioni, perché anche un giorno di nebbia non è per caso.

Lesser spotted Woodpecker (Dendrocopus minor) male_w_5201
Woodpeckers have a special bone in their head called the hyoid bone. This special bone unique to woodpeckers wraps around their entire skull inside their heads and adds a sort of shock protection. This protects them from “headaches” or injuring themselves when they are repeatedly smashing their heads up against a tree, sometimes for hours.
These little woodpeckers are uncommon to locally fairly common in deciduous woodland, parkland, larger gardens.
Very small (sparrow-sized) and easily overlooked, often foraging quietly on smaller branches and twigs high in canopy (like this little chap..).
Note bold white barring on back and wings, whitish underparts with no red blush under tail; male has red crown patch.
Thank you all who fave and comment on my photo'/video's,much appreciated.

Brain-Down Lock
Road is bumpy, thoughts fall over,
They cannot do a single step,
Your face is prisoner in a high tower,
The bridge is facing a real gap.
Seeing pictures: snapshots of life,
Grasping nothing that can matter,
Gazing thru the real world twice,
I learn an alphabet without letter.
No words who dare to paint a love,
I freeze my mind down to the hell,
Fake is the brightness calling above,
There is though only one name to spell.
Volatile wisdom blowing the air,
Acquired chances embrace the mind,
Let the grey heart be a bit fair,
I need to see then what I'll find.

I am taking this photo in single-digit wind chills of a wooly sheep, sheltering itself from the elements. So, who really has the smaller brain?
