#MUDLARKING
I absolutely love morels they are my favorite mushroom and so delicious 😋 we have neen hunting them here and I have some in my refrigerator right now. Thanks for the upload I love watching you and your mom wherever you go. I would love to see more charity shops and maybe a Farmers Market as well as your allotment and how it's growing, what you're eating from it, possibly how you use what you're growing. Love you both and whatever you're up to.
An enchanted forest dump. Lovely bird songs and and lots of mossy growth. Magical.
Mary, I was thinking the same thing!❤
😊 Abalone is the colorful one the white is mother of pearl❤
The gray bottle stop is probably smoky quartz.
Abalone tends to be more grey, brown or green and has more swirls. I think your find is mother-of-pearl. That would be from an oyster.
Over on this side of the pond, we pronounce the shell “a-buh-lone-ee”, and the oval shells are lovely. When I was young (I’m in my 70’s), we would find lots of the shells along the California shores. Plus, we loved eating abalone “steaks”. They were delicious! They virtually disappeared in the wild.
We pronounce it the same as you do over here in Australia too.😊
The song...OH I WISH I WAS A PUNK ROCKER WITH FLOWERS IN MY HAIR
Or maybe a hippy with flowers in their hair.!!!
The shell piece could be used as a Christmas decoration. Have you ever thought of making nature videos ? The clips you show are wonderful and how lucky to hear a Nightingale. Finally I must say Kate you have the most beautiful hair x
Love all your finds, and the birds singing ❤❤
It's a shame that the common nightingale isn't so common now.But what beautiful birdsong.Some great finds.
The Nightingale song was heavenly
Honey bees are the ones that will die after stinging. Bumble bees do not lose their stingers, but they can sting more than once.
Correct. And bumblebees sting much less often than honeybees. They are more docile.
I love the idea of visible mending. Anyone that does mending should leave a mark saying “I WAS HERE” ♥️
I bet your house is so interesting. I know we have seen little snippets and you are private people. Thank you for letting us see into your existence 😊
You should take home pieces off the lilac bush you were standing next to when looking for the birds, the cutting's can be rooted and planted by your house.
More than once I thought I saw garlic mustard growing. It's an invasive plant here in the States, and I just pulled most of it up out of my yard this morning. My town - near Boston - has an official 'pull up the garlic mustard' program to save native plants.
Here in the UK it's the food plant for Orange Tip butterfly
Oh wow, you’ve found a nightingale! It’s song is so unbelievably beautiful and so strong for such a tiny bird…
A film of the woods plus the bird songs would make a lovely relaxation tape 🌲🌳🪺🐦⬛
I think, but don't quote me, the stopper has a lot of lead in it.
Glass like that was used in industrial glass to make it more magnetically and electrically inert making it safer to store certain chemicals.
But I could be wrong 😊
It might be Smokey quartz…
Yes. Your videos have improved. I think that decorative curved piece of metal is an old curtain rod support.
The mother of pearl leaf reminds me of an escutcheon 🗝️
I'm also a birder in my part of the globe
Thank you for sharing the sounds and sights from yours.
11:45 You should make that metal shape into a old bath tub, like one you'd have in front of a fire an have to fill manually. Just an idea, so glad to see you out an able to enjoy a good lark. Cheers! Matt USA
Your little ointment pot would be cute as a cushioned footstool for the doll's house, or make a pin cushion for when you are mending.🥰🥰🥰
The black bottle stopper seems made from a material called Ebonite. It was invented by Charles Goodyear in 1844 and replaced widely-used wooden bottle stoppers, which tended to soak up liquids and caused many bottles to explode.
What a great place, stuff to find everywhere! I really like the little stoneware bottle & crock, but I have to say, my favorite is the bottle with man on horse. That would certainly be cleaned up and placed upon my shelf! Happy Hunting!
Hello Fleur and Kate. The leaf shaped beauty you found Kate, isn't Abalone. Abalone is a petrol blue green pink colour. Part of a shells layers. The very pretty leaf you found, was by the looks of it, a mother of pearl layer, as it looked white. It was such a lovely find, perfect in the surroundings it was found in. Nature makes everything better. How beautiful the dump looked. Green mosses, the dreaded nettles and those beautiful wild strawberries. Along with the trees... and big fat bumble bees looking for places to nest or feed. Beautiful.
I loved the stoneware items. They will be put to such good use in your dreamed about kitchen Kate. I hope when that day comes, you will show us your kitchen. 😊
A very enjoyable lark. Thank you for taking us along. X
36:50 I wonder if it is smokey quartz? That was popular in the Art Deco era. Other than that, I wonder if it was leaded and the heat from the tip burning has discolored it? Could also be (rare) scapolite (although I don’t think it is due to the clarity). Take it in to an antique dealer.
Beautiful bird song magical place xxx
You all on the British Isles are so lucky not to have to worry about snakes. I am always watching for them in the trees above the creek that I mudlark in. Sometimes it gets a bit wearisome 😟
Hi Kaye.
@@mamasgonecreating1967 Brenda 🫂❤️👋
The bird song is incredible. Thank you for sharing😊
Loved hearing the birds. Your sherd stories are always great. Hugs to Sunny. I think Abalone is a bluish, green, to pinkish shell. I believe your object was mother-of-pearl.
I think it would be very cool to make a miniature farm!
Fun fact: I’m from Pittsburgh PA USA and we call wood louse …potato bugs! No idea why!
In southern Indiana we call them Rolly Polly bugs.
They're called the same in most of the other states also@livingwithjane0654
I grew up calling them pill bugs here in eastern North Carolina. I reckon it's because they roll up into a round pill shape. Roly poly bugs is another good name for them.
They're Pill Bugs here in California.
I’ve never heard pill bug! 🧐😆
😊😊😊😊
I don’t know what I enjoyed more, the birds or the finds or maybe the purring. Thank you both for the sweet video.
She going to save those thing up in a hope chest for the future.
Larking with the nightingale! A lovely little wander in a lovely little forest, such fun finds too, especially the mother of pearl leaf. I think perhaps it's one half of a dress buckle. Sherd story was a wild ride! And so odd to run a tea room for an 'above average' customer, over a butchers!? Which in the 1880s was quite a grotesque scene...
Am sure that small white item is part of a collar stud if wearing a wrap around collar
You should have had dad cut down that R. Whites bottle. It would have made a great beverage glass. It had such bold and beautiful embossing.
It was wonderful.
the pipebowls really look like a flock of birds or chickens standing together like that in the roundup
Hay,your flowers have hair in them!Your editing & videography on your videos is fantastic!Lovely Lark Ladies!❤
55:39 I love Sunny cat’s appearances! 🥰
I love all the birds calling out or singing
Yippee 🎉 are Steven is 1st..what a lovely bird song..what more can you wich for treasures nice music and you 2❤❤
You deserve nothing less than a nightingale serenading you. Good to see your fame starting to grow. As usual you are totally delightful.
Hello my Favorite Ladies just saw your new video notification, and i get all excited 😊 to watch everytime, with your company and the birds & bees 🐝 buzzing anything is possible 💫 Thanks Always🙋♀️🙃🪂🌸🍄
So many great bottles and goodies.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The glass shaped leaf shaped item could be some type of agate.
I also could not find anything close to your grey bottle stopper.
It almost looks like a broken mortar/pestle bowl
That pot/canister w hole on side of it, could make it into a dolls house.
Interesting finds!
Mother of pearl is from nacre, a protective layer from a mollusk such as abolone or oyster shell its the first inner layer.
a pearl is also nacre, Pearls are formed when an irritant, such as a bit of food, a grain of sand, bacteria, or even a piece of the mollusk's mantle becomes trapped in the mollusk. And the nacre part of shell grows around it, to protect the freshwater mussels or marrine oysters.
Abalone shell is a gastropod mollusk, and all parts are used commercially.
Do you ever search your bottles to see if the stoppers fit?
Could the glass bowl thingy be an inkwell?
the thing at 4:49 i reckon used to be some form of decorative candle holder!
Pretty hair pull it back or up another great adventure
Anyone else immediately turn into Captain Jack Sparrow?? "Parsley? Par...snip? Parlay!!"
The bottle stop maybe Soapstone also know as Steatite, from the way you are describing it , but that would be my best guess ,.
Mother of pearl usually lighter w/ peachy/pink tones, and abalone is a bit darker or deeper-colored with bluish, grayish, and maybe green and purple tones. What a lovely piece that was. Maybe a hair or hat clip if not a pin? Thanks for another happy lark. Thoroughly enjoyed.
The only thing I can think of that the gray bottle stopper could be made of, possibly led crystal. Another great video. ❤
Here is another suggestion for the grey bottle stopper... possibly Ebonite?
I can’t believe u left that lovely little key hole piece. 😩😖 U could have put it in one of your bottles u found to keep it safe. 😖😖😩😩😩
OOh, I'm so excited. I've been waiting for you to find some Ridgway china...and you finally did!
Katie I think maybe that grey bottle stop could be a tiny weight .that's why it could weigh differently x
The half ball object is a match holder, they would sit in the hole and then you strike it on the rough sides 👍🏻
The cap could be a foot stool in a doll's house.
❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉happy😊!
Hello ladies ❤️ omg I love the stoneware bottles and jar❤ and the little brown bottles. I think that bottle stopper was carved from stone. Awesome 👍
I always adore this site love still finding things.
It's never too soon to start your Hope Chest.❤❤❤❤❤😊
Beautiful bird song, beautiful area and such wonderful treasures 😍❤️ thank you Kate and Fleur
Congratulations on being featured with other miniatures!
The melted bottle stop would make a lovely mushroom.😊
What a lovely forest of birdsong, spring flowers and I would have been lost forever 🙄 I just love the conversations and laughter and yes, your channel has evolved wonderfully 🤗 Could the stopper be lead crystal ? It would definitely be heavier than regular glass. Again, you both have brightened my day and the sherd story was amazing ! Much love and hugs, stay well and kiss Sunny for me 🥰🥰 xx
The stone bottles and jars you guys get are so rare in America they are worth a hundred dollars each some 150 to 200 dollars. I have hundreds of bottles in my collection but not one stone bottle type because stoneware is so costly.
Gorgeous video!
Brilliant video with a nightingale singing in the background. The toadstools were stinkhorns and def not edible
Responding on my phone as I’m watching y’all on my laptop
I really wish I could go mud larking with you guys. It looks like so much fun. But it is good seeing a new video from you guys. I enjoy you ladies more than you know. God bless you and your family.
Yes they made bottle stops out of many types of stone . Oldest ones are stone or marble .
That was a butiful location
Katie that bit of metal can be a sign of a paraffin heater .
I've missed you 2! I hit subscribe 4 times, so I surely should see more of your wonderful videos!😊 really enjoyed watching this! Thanks so much 😊😊😊
Love the finds and the nature shots. Your morels don't look like the ones here in Washington S tate USA, but interesting anyway. Congratulations on the YT praise.
I thought Park for the sign.
The outer web says Madras is a Victorian era china from a region in India. Thanks for the video 🌻
Its turning purple from the sunlight. The stopper is ikder and has manganese i believe thats what it is . I collect bottles little ones are my favorite. Have a couple hundred.
You’re videos are absolutely beautiful. I love your insight into nature. 🥰
Yay!!!!!! ♥️ Today is the rest of April 🤣🤦♀️🥰
I would love for you both to do a Q&A sometime soon , I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels it would be so lovely to get to know you both a little bit more 🌹
I loved the metal cuff you found and you didn’t mention it in the round up but I see it as a fabulous tub. For dolls of course.
Alot of those mother of pearl shell jewelry has gold leaf designs on it . And if it was in the weather the gold leaf could have washed off.
Could the grey stopper be made of Soapstone ! It was a stone used for Many
purposes in the 19 century. Often Soapstone kitchen sinks were preferred by homeowners.
Soapstone is I think soft enough to carve and polish into many objects.
Hope it is Soapstone. Happy for you whatever it is.
Love the mother of pearl pendant or brooch piece. Thanks for sharing.
Namaste. Carpe Diem.
I love exploring with you. Here in Australia we have to be careful of centipedes, scorpions and especially snakes and spiders. 😢
Love both your chanels, started with mudlarking and now I also have 3 dolls houses 😘
I keep thinking of that big pot you saw, it sure would be pretty, slightly on its side, with flowers cascading out of it. Like a stream. You had some very vocal birds on your walk, and I’m glad that you found your way out! 😂
The mushrooms are Verpa conica , Thimble morels, infrequent but must be well cooked if you did want to eat them from a nicer spot, indeed. There were small ones on your right in the first shot too . Must not confuse with toxic Gyromitra species. Nice video thanks
Maybe it said "Parsonage"... And your grey bottle stopper looks like it could be made of black clay (kind of like the Wedgewood black jasperware). Lovely film and birds! kindest regards, k
I wish you the best
Thank you both for such a beautiful video. The tranquil music, the lovely bird song, flowers and greenery, absolutely perfect. And of course all the treasures that you found.
Thanks again, for taking us on this journey with you.
