Material world...

meets hippy child. I do love my nature loving girlie. A half an hour later she was covered in mud up to her knees as she found a delightful pile of the mucky stuff to poke, stamp on, bury her feet in, and she even saved a clump of it and carried it around with her.

I also managed to find a caterpillar, finally. I think it's a peacock butterfly caterpillar. It's a the end of it's caterpillar stage as it was just hanging there so I was lucky to find him before it's too late! Time to find a butterfly house, I think.
