Yesterday the birding was bad, and I found myself at the Rock and Mineral Show at the fairgrounds. I was in trouble by the time I left the first booth - they had jasper and agate slabs. But my best find was about midway down the aisle - Polish flint. I'd never heard of it, never seen it, fell in love with it. It reminds me of tulip poplar wood with more action.
Here are pictures of the slab I bought (about 9x5 inches) - these are dry shots, it doesn't need to be wet to be beautiful. And it's even better in person. Wow!

One of my friends sees this as a parrot. I sort of see an eagle (along the same lines) or a VW bug.
