My Coral honeysuckle, is native to the southeast United States, is already starting to flower. The flowers attract hummingbirds and butterflies, while its red berries in the fall attract songbirds.

For the last 800 years, lime has been mined here.

But 63 million years ago, it was a giant coral reef at the bottom of an ocean.

If you bring a hammer and chisel, you can find shells, shark teeth, sea crocodile teeth and more.

It was "only" 3 million years after the great meteor strike that killed the dinosaurs, but life on earth flourished again. There is a geomuseum on site that tells about nature at that time.

Some of the coral on the Great Barrier Reef.

Hace ya tantos años, que no me he puesto a ver cuando, mi mujer y yo fuimos a Tailandia, primero a Bangkok y después a Phuket , de allí hicimos varias excursiones, una de ellas a las islas Pi Pi , amen de aquella famosa isla donde se rodó la película "El hombre de la pistola de oro" de la serie de James Bond. Bien, fue en una de estas islas de arenas absolutamente blancas, que, donde esta no se había totalmente formado por la erosión, pedacitos de coral llenaban su suelo y, según me dijeron, no se podían coger, y yo con la imprudencia del turista inconsciente, tomé algunos y me los guardé. Han pasado años, en medio aquel tristemente famoso Tsunami que arrasó todas aquellas tierras maravillosas, y yo he guardado este recuerdo que, siempre que lo miro, me lleva a aquellos días. Preciosos trozos de coral de aquel mar verde y majestuoso al que , seguramente nunca mas volveré.
