Insects in Amber

Somedays when it's dark and cold out I like have a short break from chores to watch something interesting ..Amber has always fascinated me and when I came across Mr Attenborough and Insects in Amber Who was I to resist temptation?



and an interesting link for kids

  1. Val, I loved watching this! Seeing the creatures caught in action was pretty cool--nature's photography. Watching those men crouched in the cave causes me to appreciate my amber earrings all the more.

from an old gravestone

If you hold your nose to the Grindstone
and you leave it there long enough,
Then soon you'll say
there's no such things
as brooks that babble
and birds that sing,
these three will all your world compose,
just you, the stone and your poor old nose.

(from memory so may not be word perfect)
