The Green Heron

I watched a clip showing a Heron using bread as bait in order to catch fish. The spot where this was happening was along the edge of a body of water. Other water birds were near too, adding to the bustle of activity. This did not deter the single-mindedness displayed by the Heron. It picked up what looked like, but was probably not, a piece of bread from the bank, took it down to the water"s edge, lent over, and dropped it into the water.


Hot Wheels Treasure Hunt Series Propels Collecting

Collecting of die cast toy cars like Hot Wheels and Matchbox grew out of a passion for cars and childhood memories. Until the early 1990ð€™s, collectors were constrained to just a few options: collecting variations and errors, collecting every car in a series or year, and collecting special limited editions not sold in stores. It wasnð€™t until 1995 that die cast toy car makers started producing cars for sale in stores that were packaged specifically for collecting. It was the introduction of the Treasure Hunt Series from Hot Wheels that started it all.
