moss or lichen texture at the rock which looks like a sad face with fancy hair. The eyes and the mouth are yellow, the hair is orange.

One from last summer #teamMoth to cheer myself up on these chilly mothless nights

Eyed Hawk-moths are among our biggest moths. When its forewings are covering its hindwings, the head with its dark markings might ward off a predator, because it looks like a furry face staring back, but if that doesn't work, then it flashes the ocelli (false eyes) on its hindwings and that often does the trick. #pareidolia

Eyed Hawk-moth resting on a grapevine trunk with its hindwings exposed showing false eyes to scare off predators.

With the hindwings exposed the markings on the head become an open mouth and nostrils below the eyes rather than being a face themselves — Eyed Hawk-moth resting on a grapevine trunk with its hindwings exposed showing false eyes to scare off predators.

It's above freezing, fat bike trails are closed, so trail run it is.

An oddly shaped chunk of ice which, with a little imagination, looks like a side view of cartoonish head with giant eye, swooping lock of hair above forehead, and an open mouth, smiling or laughing. All of this is on top of last year's leaf clutter.

water flowing out from a small beaver dam, across a woods trail, then down the other side with nurbles and squiggles of ice all about

It was so cold this afternoon this little goat decided to commandeer the dog house. The dogs didn't mind.

A small white goat with super cute droopy ears peeks out of an unpainted, rectangular, plywood dog house and looks at the camera.

Ummm ...
#Pareidolia

Zoomed-in photo of the dog house's wooden wall in the previous post. The pattern of grain and knots? looks the face in The Scream, or the Muppet Beaker.

Sad Face

#Pareidolia #Autumn #Nature #Photography

A single, dried, yellow-orange leaf set against a solid black background.

It displays rich, warm autumn colors, primarily a deep golden yellow with some hints of orange and subtle brown or reddish tones along the edges.

A striking feature of the leaf is the presence of three irregularly shaped holes, which, against the black backdrop, create a visual effect reminiscent of a face. — A single, dried, yellow-orange leaf set against a solid black background.

Monday yueqin mood
#pareidolia

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94hX8hAe-Qs

The sounding board of a yueqin – a stringed Chinese instrument also known as a moon lute – being held at an angle in the lap of a seated musician, looks like a discombobulated face. Its bridge looks like a nonplussed mouth and its two resonating holes look like forlorn eyes.

Morning!

#photography #Scotland #pareidolia

A photo of a viewing machine on North Berwick harbour, looking out to Craigleith island. It looks like a shiny robot. It has a wide oval head, 2 eyes and a dangling snout. Two arms curve up to its ears. Presumably they're holding its head in place, as it doesn't have a neck. Beyond the robot is the blurred view of sea, island and sky.

While searching for lichens, I discovered this pretty orange goldfish on a rock on the beach.
It must have jumped out of Lake Huron... 🤔

An orange Elegant Sunburst Lichen (Rusavskia elegans) with orange apothecia on a grey rock.
The lichen grows flat across the rock and resembles a goldfish with a fan-like tail fin, a dorsal fin, eyes, and a mouth. — An orange Elegant Sunburst Lichen (Rusavskia elegans) with orange apothecia on a grey rock.

Is it still #Pareidolia if it looks like a bear?

Wooden plank with two screws and a dark knot that looks like a bear face.

Another weathered plank with two screws and a knot that might look like a bear, but maybe more like the sloth in the Ice Age movie.

This might be my favorite because the two screws are well above a large knot in the plank, and the knot even curls inward suggesting nostrils. Below that is another knot positioned like a crooked little mouth.

Pareidolia: What weird kind of big animal is there hiding in the meadow? 🤔
The autofocus of my camera immediately focused on the "eye" 😂 .
Alas, it didn't move.

A large twisted branch that broke off a tree fell into the meadow below. It resemble a long, sleek animal raising its head our of the grass. It seems to have ears and a long snout and is looking into the distance.
