Earthwatch team looks to find more mammoths at Mammoth Site in Hot Springs
There are no sparks inside the Mammoth Site this Fourth of July weekend, but the people visiting are still in awe. "It's pretty much an insight to history. To see what happened at certain times in certain areas on this planet," said Andreas Gottzman, a Boy Scout Master visiting with Troops from Long Meadow, Massachusetts. Not only is this site unique because of the number of mammoths and how confined they are, but the active excavation that takes place each day in front of hundreds of people.

TERATOLOGY: Spectacular abberation of Mazarine Blue
This is a Mazarine Blue. These days it is found across continental Europe, as far north as the Arctic Circle, and as far south as Morocco. In the 19th Century it was found in the UK, but it became extinct in 1906, probably because of changes in hayu-making procedures which harvested before the clover eating caterpillars had matured..

ICELANDIC MONSTER
"Peter" sent me this, on a comment on the Haunted Pies blog..
A diver conducting an investigation of Geirþjófsfjörður believes he may have found evidence of a sea monster living in the fjord.Árni Kópsson told Vísir that he sent a deep sea camera into the bottom of the fjord to record what may be in one of the craters recently found there by the Marine Research Institute a few years ago. Apart from fish and shrimp, Árni says he saw something else."There was some kind of creature that you couldn't see really well," he said.
"Something that was quick to make itself scarce when you got near it."
