This is an image taken by the McNeil lab of a hippocampal growth cone exploring. Growth cones are the part of the neuron (from the axon which has to make connections) that grow outward to seek out other neurons and make connections/synapses. For more information, see this post.

The Cooper’s Hawk butt-cleaning ritual by bananaman33428 on Flickr.
via Flickr: This Cooper’s hawk was spotted by my wife in the shallow water. I thought the bird was about to bathe but to our amazement, the bird just dipped its butt and tail feathers in the water, swished these back and forth for a short while and then took off to dry the butt and the feathers on low branches.
