The Common hawk-cuckoo also known as the brain fever bird.
This bird occurs across most of the Indian subcontinent, is arboreal and prefers wooded areas.
At first glance, you may think of it as a Shikra, a raptor, because of its markings, flight and mannerisms. This imitation intimidates other birds, giving it first dibs on the best feeding spots. It's favorite food seems to be hairy caterpillars.
The male has a loud screaming three-note call that rises to a crescendo, and repeats over and over again in a hysterical manner, mostly heard during the summer months, prior to the monsoon. This call has been decoded into various languages, depending on the listener’s culture - in North India, for example, it is interpretated as “peea kahan?”, or “where’s my lover?” uttered with increasing desperation. In the state of Maharastra, it is “paos ala”, a frantic warning that “the rains are coming”. The British, when reigning in India, concluded that this bird chanted “brain fever”.
Like many other cuckoos, this bird is a brood parasite, laying their eggs in nests of babblers.
Rohan Chakravarty, a cartoonist and illustrator, has a wonderful take on this behaviour - see this at www.greenhumour.com/2022/04/brood-parasitism-and-going-cu...

This comes from two fractals dreamed up together. The dominant image is a sort of specimen dish of brain like forms and the other is a color study from some months ago.

More fooling around with the skull model. This one inspired by some ELP I was listening to at the time.
Saw some fungi today and yesterday, its certainly been fresh the last few days, hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Year
Was struggling to think of something for this weeks MM. Decided to root around in the freezer and this sandwich bag cooling pack showed itself!
HMM! Theme: Keep it cool

Yellow Brain Fungus / tremella mesenterica. Pioneer Meadows, Derbyshire. 29/01/18.
A pleasing local find growing on a thin fallen Hazel branch.
I had watched this fungus develop over about a week and seized the opportunity to photograph it after a night of heavy rain. Fully hydrated it was at its gelatinous best!
Another marvellously named fungus. I think this is Leafy Brain (Tremella foliacea) as far as I can work out anyway. There are so many closely related species of fungus I’m never 100%
One of the Jelly Fungus family, if I have the identification right it is a fungus that develops and feeds on another fungus in decaying wood.
Nature is amazing!
White Pocket is a dream place for people who take pictures. The way that light and dark play together, especially when the sun is coming up or going down, makes the rocks look even more interesting. It changes all the time so it's always different. The place being far away means not a lot of bright lights at night. This makes it great for taking amazing pictures of the stars.Walking in White Pocket is a unique adventure. The place is not big, but it has rough and uneven ground. You need to go very carefully there. There is no set path, so visitors can walk and find the special shapes at their own speed. It's a spot that promotes searching and gives prizes to the inquisitive.The 'brain rocks' or 'cauliflower rocks' are one of White Pocket's most intriguing features.
...A l'origine, l'église de Braine avaient une longueur de 70 m.
Elle comportait 6 travées.
L'emplacement de la partie disparue est matérialisé au sol sur le parvis.
A la limité rouge du parvis s'élevaient trois partails aux ébrasements profonds, celui du milieu étant surmonté d'une grande rose.
En 1650, l'église est pillée par les Espagnols, à la révolution elle est saccagée.
Le 16 avril 1791, l'église est fermée et les Prémontrés chassés.
Un décret la voua à la destruction en 1806.
Elle fut sauvée grâce à un curé de Braine, l'Abbé Beaucamps qui alerta les autorités et le Roi Louis XVIII lui rappelant que les Comtes de Dreux étaient des Capétiens.
Au moment de la restauration en 1829 une grande partie de la nef était effrondrée.
Les 4 premières travées furent démolies et les portails démontés, l'église ne mesure plus que 42 m.
Les travaux durèrent une vingtaine d'années.

Excerpt from www.brainproject.ca:
Brain #: 346 (LEFT)
In describing his inspiration for the Brain Project, artist David Drebin noted that the title of this brain says it all: Inner Thoughts. What was once personal and safely nestled inside one’s mind is now on display for all to see. Take a look and see if you discover some inner thoughts of your own.
Brain #: 336 (RIGHT)
When Bobbie Burgers wakes up or falls asleep, various dream-like images often float across her mind’s eye. This is what makes up most of her work; a collage of day dreams, death, rebirth, nature, beauty, age, perfumes and sounds. All her senses intertwined. She has recently been intrigued by how most of her creative work takes place in this dreamlike, subconscious state. Lucid dreaming and dream incubation are a fascinating combination of creative control and controlling one’s own creativity on how we view the world, what we wish to experience and the endless unknown of the human brain.
As some of you know I had a near fatal encounter with a brain tumor in 2010. My daughter found me unconscious and called 911. I thank her every day for saving my life!
Meningioma
A usually noncancerous tumor that arises from the membranes surrounding
the brain and spinal cord.
It isn't clear what causes a meningioma. Radiation therapy, female hormones, and genetics may play a role. In most cases, the condition is noncancerous.
Symptoms may include changes in vision, headaches, hearing loss, and seizures.
A small, slow-growing meningioma that isn't causing signs or symptoms may not require treatment. When needed, treatment might involve surgery or radiation.

Ever have one of those days when your brain can't reach you?
Photographer's note: I was not very pleased with how this one turned out due to equipment failure (dead camera batteries during my first attempt), timed street lights, and police. Yes, the police stopped to chat with me since they thought I closed the street myself, but in fact the road blocks were already there. So I had to explain why I was holding a brain under the train tracks. Nothing to see here officers! ;)
One of my biggest struggles with my 365 project is not being able to "perfect" my photographs enough in the allotted time with busy schedules. I'm sure everyone doing a 365 project deals with this common struggle, but it sure takes a toll one one's mental and physical self. Just 26 more days til rest!
