Wangari Maathai & The Hummingbird

Wangari Maathai died today.
I heard her speak in 2005 at the Clinton Global Initiative. She was a lady who planted trees.
Like Jonny Appleseed. Or the man who planted trees. She was certainly a hummingbird.
A special woman who’s best was pretty darn impressive.
Thank you Wangari. Thank you. The world thanks you.

ps thanks cathryn for letting me know

Hubert Duprat Jewelled Cocoons

Hubert Duprat has “collaborated” with aquatic caddis fly larvae, gold and some semi precious stones to create some of the most beautiful things I’ve seen in a while:

The flies use the metals to make their cocoons.
Nature is beautiful!
