Faces in Nature (Pareidolia in Nature)

[robotpie]

This thread was inspired by:

1. This very happy looking leaf in which I found whilst iNatting:
   

   

2. The phenomenon of “pareidolia”, ie. perceiving meaningful interpretation of an object or pattern when in reality none exists (eg. smiley faces within natural formations)

If you have such pictures of “faces in nature” and would like to share, please be welcome to do so here in this hopefully innocent and fun thread.

I just can’t get over how happy the leaf looks.

On a similar note if you turn this photo upside down you can see a smiling skull:
