Hiking through the magically misty Maquipucuna Cloud Forest Reserve, I came upon this fungus that I believe is Monkey's Ear, Auricularia cornea. I had to poke it.

This is why I still have to keep my hands in my pockets in museums.

A woman wearing a green hat, a blue plaid apron over a white top, and a striped skirt with Indigenous patterns (all indicative of traditional Andean dress) sits on stone steps looking at her smartphone. Next to her is a red bucket with folded pink fabric and other items.

Four people (on the left) swim in a calm lake at sunset with a dramatic cloudy sky in shades of blue and orange above a silhouetted tree line. This is a lagoon in the Cuyabeno region of the Amazon basin in Ecuador.

A large cluster of more than two dozen small green, segmented caterpillars with orange heads and small white dots cover a single green leaf in a tight pattern on a tree branch. Text underneath says "How do the birds find them? When one coughs, it gives them all away." Followed by "Maquipucuna Cloud Forest Reserve, Ecuador"

I'm waiting for an overnight bus that will take me to the Amazon. In 24 hours I will have traveled from 12000 ft to near sea level.

AI prompt: Due to the pressure change, is there a danger of my head imploding?
