EXPERIENCE WITH TAWNY COSTER

Hello everyone !!!


I feel jubilant to divulge about my old experience with fossils.


When at the age of 7, I was clueless about how does a fossil form, I decided to create my own fossil out of dead organism and a slab of rock; but unfortunately, I was unable to find an apt organism to do so. Then I was caught up with an idea of converting a dead Tawny coster butterfly into a fossil. As planned, I took a perfectly carved cement slab and feebly placed the dead Tawny coster I had in my hand now I let it to transmute into a beautiful fossil. It’s been 5 years by now. It has embedded spectacularly. Still, I feel majestic that I have created a fossil without knowing how does it form nor depending upon books to know how to make it out; Yet, thanks a lot for my creativity !! that helped me out in the olden days.

Above given pictures are of: Tawny Coster Butterfly and 5 year old fossil of Tawny Coster.
