Really nice documentary about a scientist who made our understanding of tornadoes a lot better. I love to know about such stories of humans who are curious about how our world works.

I swear I am giving the magpies plenty of food, but apparently they want everything I put out in my garden.

Square photo of a winter garden. In the foreground is a small tree with two feeding stations hanging from thin branches only suitable to hold small birds. One is a small red house with seeds, the other is a metal spiral filled with suet cakes. The main attraction in this photo is an Eurasian magpie caught in flight, it's wings spread out, as it tries to get a nibble from one of the suet cakes.

Colombia Bans All New Oil and Mining Projects in its Amazon–an Area the Size of Sweden

It’s 42% of Colombia’s territory. It’s 7% of the total Amazon Rainforest. It’s the same size as Sweden, and it’s now free from future oil and mineral extraction. The news that half a million square kilometers of territory in the Amazon biome of Colombia was now limited only to renewable and regenerative economic activities only […]

Yes. 'Cause you don't want stray leaves.

#photography #nature #Sunset
Looking over a lake (yes, the same old lake but it’s always so different). This is the moment of sunset where the sun’s rays skim over the horizon through our atmosphere scattering red, orange, and yellow light to illuminate the bottom of clouds stretching in an arc from horizon to horizon. The rays are then reflected onto a placid lake creating a perfectly symmetrical pattern of light and dark dunes. In the foreground is a sandy shore strewn with weeds.

Fungi on fungi for #fungifriday.

These striking filaments are the reproductive structures of Spinellus fusiger, a parasitic fungus commonly known as bonnet or pin mould. It lives by infecting host mushrooms, producing thread-like sporangiophores that end in minute spore capsules, giving the mushrooms a fuzzy, pincushion-like appearance.

A single, slender mushroom emerges from a lush bed of moss and lichen. Its dark brown, conical cap is covered in a striking halo of fine, radiating white filaments that resemble delicate hairs or threads spreading outwards in all directions. These filaments are the reproductive structures of Spinellus fusiger, a parasitic fungus commonly known as bonnet or pin mould. They catch the light, creating a bright, spiky effect around the mushroom's cap. The mossy ground is a vivid shade of green, with soft textures and various pale green lichens scattered throughout. The background is softly blurred with green and brown tones.

November sunsets can be so sublime
#Sunset #nature #photography #michigan
A pastel sunset of orange, yellow and red is reflected on a calm lake with dark sand dunes on the horizon, creating a symmetrical picture. Dark grey clouds are along the top and reflected on the bottom, giving the illusion that the strip of color in the middle of the picture is a torn piece of paper.

Herperduin view - 28/09/2024

A little edit I made of the video I recorded from the top of the tower at the Herperduin.
Just a silly little thing, but I wanted to share it with some friends. 😊

This time of year is so interesting for interesting people interested in interesting things. Saw so much
#fungi today, and here are three of the best, plus a really interesting gall

1) Upright Coral fungus
2) Candlesnuff fungus
3) Snowy waxcap
4) Common spangle gall wasp's gall

A pink-orange fungus growing vertically. It resembles very upright coral with little branches coming off at the top
Some thin, pointed vertical fungus growing on wood. They are individual stems, black like coal dust at the base and a little way up the stem, turning to a powdery white
A silky, ivory white round headed fungus in grass. Almost jellyfish like. It has a translucent quality.
Close up of a dark brown oak leak with a number of circular galls with a circular raised centre ... think circular fried eggs of poppers on clothes. They are a pale yellow/off white, with speckles. You can't see them but each raised centre has a larvae inside.
