Amazon Gallery - Habitats

 "Extraordinary Diversity The Graham Amazon Gallery invites visitors to experience the extraordinary diversity and interdependence of aquatic and terrestrial life in the Amazon as they walk through a re-creation of South America’s tropical rainforest. This region has over 3,000 fish species and one-fifth of the world’s bird species—and many more animals are still being discovered. The gallery highlights some of these amazing species, as well as some of the threats they face." Vancouver Aquarium Website

Habitats Frogs and our coastal waters

Visiting the Frogs Forever Exhibit and educational speaker at the Vancouver Aquarium.

 

"Frogs In Peril
Amphibians survived the disaster that wiped out the dinosaurs, but now they’re under siege from a variety of threats including habitat loss, devastating disease and being hunted for food. At the rate they’re disappearing, we could lose up to half of the world’s amphibians in our lifetimes. Frogs Forever? highlights the diversity and plights of frogs, salamanders and toads from different regions of the world. It also shows the amazing transformations they undergo in their lifetimes and offers some ways to help protect them" - Vancouver Aquarium Website

Van Gough Art Appreciation

Today Abbie Selected her favourite Van Gough painting from the book Master Works Van Gogh by Nathaniel Harris.

She spent three days browsing and discussing all the paintings by Van Gogh and narrowed her choices down to three;

• Woods and Undergrowth (also known as Trees and Undergrowth), 1887
• The Allotments, 1887
• The Public Gardens Arles in Autumn, 1888

It was hard but she settled on one favourite that she is going to use as her inspiration to make her very own replica in her style!
