This rare historical treasure has been covered in mud for centuries. Mudlarking the River Thames

- How is this mudlarking find linked to the notorious prison hulks moored along the River Thames in London? It's not very often that you find a perfect little historical treasure like this one which has been covered in mud for well over a century. You'll see why I love it when you see the story it uncovers. There's also lots of other objects found in the mud in this video which you'll enjoy and maybe you can tell me about some of them.
If you are tempted to try mudlarking, you need a permit from the Port of London Authority. Check out their website here. Currently they are not issuing new permits.

Thank your watching.
You can follow me on twitter and instagram @tidelineart and also on FB.
See you soon.
Love Nicola
It occurred to me that the crows flipping rocks over might seem a small thing but if you think about the thousands and millions of times the Thames river birds perform that action they are really churning massive amounts of debris which is potentially exposing more treasures that would otherwise remain hidden. Anyhow love your videos! #tidelineart
Also, the crows flipping and looking closely is different from the simple plucking and pulling that a bird does normally. Very smart
The Thames' crows are my spirit animal 😂
Yes,crows,magpies,mudpies(hi down there in Brighton!😉),they are the Corvids,such intelligent birds,so intelligent,tat humans notice such intelligence.
I love crows! That’s why I bought a silver crow pendant from Nicola & Simon’s friend Wendy who makes jewelry. I’ve bought several pendants, bracelets and earrings from her and they are all beautiful! I’ve also bought the barge padlock necklace that she made which looks just like the padlocks these guys sometimes find in the Thames. Si often wears one in his videos. But the crow pendant is my favorite! I saw Nicola wearing it in one video and had to go order one right away. I’ve gotten so many compliments on it!
One of my ancestors sent to Australia on the prison ship Claudine , he is mentioned in the doctors log
I have dug around the documents to search out my Convict ancestors histories and plenty of info is to be found in the NSW archives. Irish ancestors were a bit difficult to find until I discovered that some very old iish nwewpaers still held records ,mnay of which are digitised today.
Even if Nicola only ever found old pipe stems I'd still love this channel, the wild life, history and river sounds will always make it timeless, great stuff 👍😊
And all the bird's such a joy 😊❤
As an Australian, I found the information about the Sheer Hulk bottle seal extremely fascinating! When the First Fleet brought the first prisoners from England to Australia, the voyage took eight months. It’s difficult to imagine being stuck on a ship for so long! #tidelineart
Four of my ancestors came by prison ship to the colony of New South Wales. If the journey itself took 6-8 months, they also had to stay on the hulks until a full load of convicts was reached. Often for a couple of years.
My Irish convict ancestors also came out on one of these horror ships. One was sentenced For The Term Of His Natural Life.
He was eventually given his Ticket of Leave and allowed to travel anywhere in the world Except Great Britain and Ireland.
I believe the artifact you find at 15:00 is from an interesting period in history...a LOT of periods, in fact. The trade name Modess is a brand of sanitary napkin introduced in the 1920s that changed the lives of 20th century women. Long before the advent of stick-on pad technology, Modess sold a clumsy-looking accessory--an elastic belt with little widgets that held a napkin in place by working each of its endflaps through the open-edged flanges. The closed flanges were for threading the elastic waistbelt through. I'll be interested to see by video's end whether you solved this mystery.
Great info thanks .
I remember the pads and belts vividly. Uncomfortable, bulky, embarrassing for a 12 year old girl.... 1960's.
came here to say this!
I thought it looked like some kind of “ garter hook”
@@l.a.glover9172 TRUUUUTH!!!
I always love that you include the birds you see: crows, swans, seagulls... all of the local citizens.
#tidelineart 💙
Which is exactly how we would observe things if we were there, sounds and smells, . Also feel the temperature and energy.
I love all the birds included too! Your videos are wonderful!❤ I so wish I could come mudlarking with you!
@@elsajones6325you’re so right!
What makes your channel stand out for me is the research you put in to bring even the smallest item to life. #tidelineart
Being from the States I always find your videos so interesting. I always wonder just how many of the pipes you will find. I was so interested in the seal and the family history you found out. I've always loved history. Fascinating historical finds just waiting for you to find them in the mud. Thank you for your content. #tidelineart
That bottle seal with William Proctor's initials on it led to you discovering that his son had died in the plague. When you said that, it was really haunting to think that this man's extremely personal pain in his life can be discovered a couple of hundred years later through a bottle seal in the mud of the Thames. That stuck with me. All of those items you find belonged to someone in the past, but research these people long gone and discovering things about them like the loss of a child to the plague is when history truly brings the past alive. #tidelineart
Thanks Susie, yes that is a particularly sad story!
Perhaps not a favourite, but did recognise the 'clip" , it was on a suspender belt to attach a sanitary napkin. Modess was a very popular brand. xx
Thank you! I *knew* it was personally familiar. Yeah, I'm old.
There is something like that called The "Hoosier" sanitary belt that is in a museum..
Hello from distant Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. I thoroughly enjoy watching your escapades on the river foreshores. Mudlarking is not as "easy" down-under as we don't have the history England boasts. So we make do by watching your adventures and drool with envy. I like your editing where you cut to the wildlife you share your river banks with. Crows over here are just as intelligent as over there, and are my favourite bird too. #tidelineart
I’m American and live in South Dakota since 2016 but am from Southern California. I love watching you and all the other Mudlarks on your adventures! I bought a Father Thames ring and I love it. It’s my ultimate dream to come to the UK and meet all of you! I hope they start allowing new mudlarking permits soon. Thanks for all your work and artistic endeavors!
Hello from Canada, Nicola! I enjoy watching you discover history and pretty things. I too loved the glass seal…the colours are amazing and the writing so clear! Thank you for the peace you give me in this crazy, dark world. Please continue doing what you do…you are so needed.
I’ll second that ❤
I third that!!👍🏻
May I fourth it?
And I fifth it❤
Ok! I’m the 6th😂!
There never is just one thing I love about your videos, but today, it was the amount of history you found relating to The Sheer Hulk. Again, your unbridled passion, as proven from Charlotte, inspires many. Thank you for your hard work to put these videos together. #tidelineart
My Dad had a crow as a pet when he was young. It had fallen out of the nest and Dad rIsed him.
The crow stole anything shiny in the house, grandma finally found the stash after months of searching! I love watching your videos here in the states. #tidelineart
I’m so very glad that you take the time to film nature during your mudlarking. How wonderful to hear your excitement when you find a loved object. # TidelineArt
I agree! I also wanted to tell you to put the # without space before tidelineart, which should be written with only small letters. This way, it will light up in blue, and you'll get a chance to enter the draw.
I love crows and magpies, but crows are more approachable than their flashy cousins. #tidelineart.
I am transported to the banks of the Thames and imagine myself searching for treasures from the past when I view your wonderful videos and this video was no exception. I love learning the provenance of your finds. #tidelineart
Your videos got me into mudlarking, I am out every week (sometimes 2 or 3 times a week) looking for treasures and thanks to you I know what most of my finds are - your videos teach us all so much and inspire us to get out there. This episode has made me want to come down to London from Manchester to have a scrape about on the foreshore #tidelineart
I love it when British people say "BRILLIANT"! BRILLIANT!
Spot on. Spot on!
My favorite part of this episode was seeing all the joy and happiness those treasures bring to you and how you seem to share that excitement with the rest of us who may already be historians, and even those who may be new. Thank you again! #tidelineart Keep on digging!
I'm also a fan of Corvids and agree that they are so intelligent and great characters. I love the way you incorporate them into your videos - definitely a favourite section for me. #tidelineart ❤
I think it’s wonderful that you’ve started including a shoutout to the young up and coming Mudlarks! I’m sure they are thrilled!! Very inspiring! #tidelineart
I love following up on subjects you discuss regarding your finds. I did a dive into the convict transports, sailing time depended on where they left from, which round of sailings they were and where they were going.The transportation of convicts to Australia from the UK began in 1787 and continued until 1868. 8- 12 months average sail time depending where they were leaving from, going to and stops along the way. 25 percent of the passengers died. (not set in stone, varying amounts reported) Some voyages were particularly brutal with the captains cutting stops to get there quicker with no regard to reprovisioning for the convicts, resulting in high deaths on top of the ones that would have occurred with provisions.
Love watching your videos every Sunday-- you define the day for me. If it's Sunday, there must be Nicola. I love how joyful you are. That was by no means your first bramble pipe, but you were as happy to find it as if it had been! Thank you for adding joy to the world. #tidelineart
I always enjoy the time you take to film and appreciate the nature and birds on your explorations. Thank you for that Nicola! #tidelineart
Greetings from the New England in the US. I started watching you and Simon B a few months ago & recently have been buying books to learn more. Though we all enter your Mudlark world vicariously, it truly does provide a respite from The World that is too much with us. I love the history you all bring to life, it’s fascinating! Hopefully the museum will come to fruition & we will be able to see the finds close up.
Thank you for all you do!
#tidelineart
Your videos are so inspiring. I enjoyed seeing the crows digging in the mud, they are so much smarter than most people give them credit for. #tidelineart
I had a couple of favorite parts of this video: 1) The crows at the beginning - it's always so peaceful to watch the birds and to hear their calls along with the sound of the water. And 2) When you found that small odd-shaped object and decided to keep it even though you didn't know what it was. And then you discovered it was a toy! I live in a landlocked state in the U.S. so I'm living vicariously through you. Thanks for sharing your adventures with everyone. #tidelineart
I can only dream of walking along the Thames with you, and find so many beautiful pieces of History. That is one of my favorite things about your videos, learning the History of your finds. #tidelineart
Your videos are always fascinating, but this one seemed to have an extra energy about it! Thank you so much Nicola for sharing your joy with us!
I would be useless at mudlarking. You say " can you see what I'm looking at ? " And I see absolutely nothing. I'd forever be going home empty-handed 😂. Well done Nicola. Great video, fantastic finds. Much love and respect from the Netherlands ❣️🙏
Hello from Bristol! I absolutely loved the mudlarking crows too! They're such amazing birds!!
Really loved the Britain's Milk Churn toy. What joy that must have brought a child once!
#tidelineart
I'm constantly amazed at your ability to pick out some of these tiny, barely visible items from the muck and rocks. Often, I still can't see them even after you zoomed in and are pointing directly at them.
I love "walking" along with you on the shores, along with the mudlarking crows, and seeing what you find! It's fun to see the items cleaned up and to hear the history behind the long-lost treasures! Thank you for taking us along on your adventures! #tidelineart
Hi Nicola,
I’m one of the ‘late arrivals to the party’ in the crow necklace giveaway. In this video I was really fascinated by the bottle seal, as you were also. I really love that it had enough information on it to chase some of its history. I tend to do want I call ‘Field Larking’ and find many interesting bottles and glass bottle stoppers too. I also love the obligatory, ‘glass in the sun’ shot. I really love all your videos and try not to miss any. They really help me relax and unwind after a busy day. Keep doing what you love, Happy mudlarking 😊🦆. #tidelineart
I loved watching the crows flipping stones to find shrimp. I feed a raven pair here in Ontario and enjoy their flight antics and various calls, l like to imagine they are saying thanks for the treats! #tidelineart
I am from the USA and wanted to tell you your videos bring my heritage alive for me. I truly love your passion for history. Today’s favorite find was the
bottle seal. It is beautiful. #tidelineart
Yikes. Thank you
I love seeing the wildlife on the Thames and the sounds of the waves. It's all very atmospheric. Thank you
#timelineart
It's #tidelineart not #timelineart
Crows are my absolute favourites. Been out feeding them in the park today. Loved how much information you were able to learn from one small piece of glass. #tidelineart
Watching the crows flip bits and pieces of the Thames while sharing their finds with other crows with their dance, was awesome as always. #tidelineart
#tidelineart , I live in the U.S.A. Never have travel much ,but here we have the history of the native Indians,so I hunt air heads ,also all their tools .Lots of excitement to find them. Enjoy your show so much , I am 79 years old and can’t get out anymore. Take care and GOD bless
I always enjoy your content and the excitement of rescuing lost, discarded relics and giving them renewed life. As a New Zealander I am so envious of the rich history of England. I endeavor to visit one day.. its on the bucket list. Love your channel. Happy hunting. #tidelineart
I have become an avid fan of both yourself and si finds mainly because of your investigations of the artifacts that you find , it's always so interesting to hear all the stories about them , hope you all have a fruitful year of mud larking #tidelineart
Thank you Nicola for giving us the opportunity to go along with you and mudlark tougher! I wish some day be in the Thames finding lots o treasures! #tidelineart
Dearest Nicola, I’m sitting in my armchair in NZ. I’m doing stitchery, watching your video, I’m in my happy place. The only way I could be happier would be to accompany you on an afternoons mudlark as an apprentice. I would hold your trowel, stow your tiny finds and hold the camera so you could use TWO hands to retrieve little delicate items. I would then treat you coffee & cake 🧁 as we did a round up. Then I would float home, another item on my bucket list achieved! One of my favourite things is trying to find the item as you pan in…. I never do. My perspective is always skewed. Another lovely video. Thank you. I must say though, never heard the words “Thames Bath” used together before! 😅😊 #tidelineart
What I liked about this video and all your videos, is the excitement you have when you pick up an object, and start wondering about it's history, and in many cases are able to find some of it, Thank you for the wonderful videos.
when reading comments, there are many complimentary descriptions of the very many aspects of your videos; also your optimism, curiosity, wonder, easy manner, informative delivery yet never boring are fab. Thank you 🙏
I was on a metal-detecting with her and Si, another mudlark, a couple of years ago. She is exactly as she appears to be. She is kind, thoughtful, friendly, expressive, curious, and beautiful and it is just a pleasure to be in her company.
That's very kind of you xx
Nicola, not only do your videos inspire me, you do, Dear Heart.
I wish I had somewhere to explore in the states in my area to find vintage pieces of history.
I find your channel fascinating and have been following you for a couple years. I've learned so much!!
#tidelineart
Greetings Nicola from British Columbia, Canada. I so enjoy your videos and explorations. So much wonderful history you are able to glean even from parts of a broken find. Your bottle seal from this video revealed so much information. I loved the crows. We have many crows here on the coast of British Columbia. They are intelligent and inquisitive creatures. Though considered by many to be pests, I can’t help but marvel at their activities and their keen knowledge of the world about them. Thank you for your most engaging videos! #tidelineart
Hi from the USA. You’re the best history teacher I’ve ever had and I’m 70 years old ❤#tidelineart
Hi Nicola,
I love watching your videos. Living in Williamsburg, VA. My mother who 82 and in a nursing home actually turned me on to your videos. She loves watching them. I love the the bottle seal. Love hearing all about the history from your research on all your finds. I find it fascinating! Thank you for sharing. #tidelineart
Hi Nicola, you have inspired me to be a mudlarker in Canada, don't find anything nearly as interesting or as old as you find but I find it to be such a meditative activity#tidelineart
I have been to Britain twice and would love to someday go back. I would love to visit the places where my ancestors lived and would definitely like to take a tour of the foreshore. Your videos are always so inspiring, Nicola! 😊 #tidelineart
One of the many reasons your videos are so wonderful to me is because you do stop to enjoy all that is around you while youre mudlarking including the crows. Thanks, Nicola! #tidelineart
Lovely Seal Nic! Congrats 😊👍🏻👣🧡
Hi Nicola! There is so much I love about your vids. The tone, the information, the passion and the kindness. I look forward to following your work for a very long time. Love from the USA! #tidelineart
Loved the lead milk churn and the ornate Georgian key , but the bottle seal was my favourite , so much history to be uncovered in one fragile item. Talking about the hulk ships and then the subsequent journeys to Australia, it must have been absolutely bleak and terrifying . What a dreadful journey ! not something you'd do by choice in those days. Imagine the appalling conditions they must have had to put up with for months. Thanks again Nicola for a fascinating video. #tidelineart
Barbara, you have to edit your post. You misspelled the # its tide not time.
@@sharonaxelrod4608 Many thanks Sharon 👍
Mind you, for most of them, appalling conditions were all they had ever known.
The little clip with Modess stamped on it was from a sanitary towel holder/belt - which we wore in the 60's and 70's. The towels (pads ) were commercially made, of woven fabric, and we wore an elastic circle with a tag hanging on the front and the back of the belt round our waist inside our knickers, and it had that clip on the end of each tag. The 'clip' was threaded (sewn) onto the end of the tag, and the soft fabric of the ends of the pad wound round those 2 little horns on the side of the clip. They are now replaced by self adhesive pads with no belt necessary. At that time (when I was an adolescent,1963), these were the only option unless you wore 'rags' (old fabric scrap) padded together and placed in your bloomers, which some people did as late as the seventies. Tampax was slow to come on the market and viewed by many women with suspicion. Menstruation was a very secret thing then, not talked about, and sanitary pads (such as Modess made) , were prewrapped in brown paper on the shop shelves so the name wasn't visible and you were never observed buying them. You also could not buy them on a Sunday here in NZ, the shelf with them on was curtained off. Modess pads were promoted as modesty aids. BTW one of the nicknames for your period then was 'rag week'. This is probably too much information, but this history - because of ideas of 'modesty' and the idea of women being unclean while bleeding is not always clear and historically usually only occasionally mentioned by male authors as it has nearly always been beyond the pale to discuss it.
#tidlineart I am a bird watcher and I love when you show the wildlife, But of course history is a favorite also, so the bottle seal was my favorite. I always look forward to your videos. Thanks Nicola
Crow watching is a delight. Love their intelligence! All the wildlife you share with us from your mudlarks is special.
My favorite from this episode is the key. I always wonder what important lock it opened and what was revealed! Thank you for sharing the history discovered.
#tidelineart
My favorite part is the footage of the crows. They're such special beings. And they do recognize people. And remember them for great periods of time. They must like you, too. The toy churn find was nice. You always have such a variety of finds! #tidelineart
The best part of the video was walking beside you, as your friend, finding the items with you. Here is the U.S. our rivers are so different and there isn't anthing to find but recent plastic garbage. Thank you for taking me with you. #tidelineart
I always love your videos. I found the stories about the Hulk prisons to be very interesting. Those journeys to Australia and New Zealand must have been horrible, and yes, deadly. As a former teacher, I loved when my students would be inspired by my lessons, and to even have many who pursued the subject matter in college and beyond. You must feel grand when hearing from these young "Archaeologists". #tidelineart
I don't think convicts went to NZ just Australia.
I love this video, as usual you never disappoint. It's great to see how you inspire young ones to mudlark. My husband and I are artists working in all kinds of media, so mudlarking, metal detecting and scrap metal dumps are near to our hearts. Dumpster diving too. One man's trash is another's treasure. #tidelineart.
Nicola,
The average trip to Australia was 100 days, The Cutty Sark had the record of 72 days.
This was in the 1860's when sailing ships were at their fastest.
A convict ship, The Shipley, travelled from England to New South Wales between
November 19th, 1816 to May 3rd 1817
That must have been terrible for everyone!
Today it's usually about 40 days.
I personally would rather fly:)
Cheers,
Rik Spector
The crows like picking up rocks and mudlarking too!
I found your Chinese coin, Nicola! It’s characters on the busy side say, “Guangxu tongbao (circulating treasure of Guangxu)” and it’s from between 1876 and 1908. I’ll give you the site address in my next comment.
Nicola, I love all your videos and I especially love when you appreciate the impression that history leaves behind in the mud...and the fleeting moments that are quickly erased.
#tidelineart
I love the bottle seal and the story it told - so much information on a small piece of glass. Here on the seacoast of Southern California, there are very few true 'finds' compared to the Thames, but in the late 1800s we did have a local olive oil company that dumped glass into a creek (and then the ocean). I was lucky enough to find a bottle seal that says Ellwood Cooper Olive Oil. The prize of my seaglass collection! And, my local family of crows is raising a baby - I enjoy this time of year with them. So wonderful to see Thames crows flipping rocks! Thank you for the fascinating history, from one who misses the history of where she grew up (New England). #tidelineart
My favourite find is that zany tag with all the numbers on it.
It is like a photograph of my brain,when I try to deal with mathematics!!!
A bottle seal(second only to a pipe) must be one of your favorites,as they are screaming at you to do research,which you are passionate about.
Thanks for sharing your adorable letter from Charlotte(not the least bit frozen).
It’s important that children value history,and your videos help that along nicely,be proud of that,Nicola.
Oooh,squirrel!!!
Get ready to shovel ice cream and pickles out the squirrel door,that craving is soon to be😂!
She will give birth to 3.
Lastly,know this:
There are many Mudlark channels,I do enjoy the many to whom I subscribe.
They are all wonderful.
But amongst them,there are a top five.
I shall not mention names,I only say that your channel is number one,top of the mud pops,the gold standard by which others measure their own work.
☺️
#nottryingforagiveaway
😂
Thanks Charles xx
I absolutely love watching your videos! I feel the anticipation with you, if only the U.S. had such old historical places to search! #tidelineart
Hi, ScooterAnnie. Surely there's some stuff? America started in 17th century, yes? How about on the banks of that great river, the Missicipi (soz, how do u spell it?), the paddle steamer jetties an wharves must have stuff dropped overboard, or while staggering drunkenly down gangplank after a few days in the on-board casinos? Get out there, have a go?!
@@miriamdumbleton4280 I’m in California, but yes you are correct about possibly finding older artifacts. But NOTHING like the old old stuff in the Thames!
I just love how your videos bring happiness to so many people from so many places! I’ve seen all your videos. I especially love how you inspire the kids they are precious. #tidelineart
It's lovely watching the crows mudlarking. You're right - they are incredibly smart birds! #tidelineart
A wonderful combination of Sir. David Attenborough and Nigella to Lawson.
Thank you so much for your extra investigations which really bring these objects to life. I appreciate the time you put into this as I'm sure there are many hours where you don't find anything but you definitely have a good eye for spotting treasures. #tidelineart
Just amazing what you find along the Thames. Wish I had such an interesting place to look for historical finds. The pipes just amaze me. Enjoy the summer!
I so enjoyed not only you doing your fantastic mudlarking adventure, but watching the crows mudlarking too 😅. Thanks for all the research you do and give us so much history. I love keys so that was one of my favorite finds you had ! #tidelineart I too remember the days of Modess...ugh !
My wife has been a fan for a long time and now we watch together every week. Particularly enjoyed the iridescence of the bottle seal. Can’t wait for the next episode! #tidelineart
Hello Nicola from Texas USA. I am fascinated by history and I absolutely love your videos. I find it fascinating how you can find out the history behind the tiniest thing. Looking forward to watching more. #tidelineart
I always enjoy your videos, Nicola, and especially appreciate your research and back stories into some of the folks you uncover in the mud. I hope you will perhaps bring us some of your personal perspective on the Coronation coming up shortly if you plan on attending any of the festivities. #tidelineart
Thanks Steve! I will certainly try to go!
I was so excited that you showed the crows! I ABSOLUTELY love crows. What a wonderful outing ! #tidelineart
I love your mudlarking you describe all of your finds history is my favourite subject. i am 79yrs old never bored by you.
Thank you Colin!
I love the array of things you find and the care you take to uncover the story behind them! I love the sound of the squishy mud, too -it makes me feel like a kid! Thanks for the awesome videos! #tidelineart
Well the little money clip is really from Modess and was a sanitary belt holder. #tidelineart
I loved the crows flipping rocks & all the amazing pieces of history you found. #tidelineart
Sister I LOVE your videos…You have inspired me …as well as my 3 Granddaughters.. ..THANK YOU ! Sending positive energy blessings and prayers from Pittsburgh PA.USA.💛🖤💛☯️LOVE & LIGHT
#tidelineart..
Toy milk churn at 13.00 Britains
Modess was a brand of feminine napkin. I think that you found a clip which helped stabilize the pad. #tidelineart
I have really enjoyed you for quite a few years. It is my early morning treat! Never stop discovering friends and historical family members from the past!❤
The “Olde Grey Hulk Building”So interesting!
I loved the letters from the Budding Architects and Mudlarks. Charlotte sounds like me as a child. Crows are some of my favorite birds along with Ravens and Eagles.
I loved that you gave a shout to Charlotte the budding Archeologist! Plus you showed her drawing! I bet she was beside herself!
#tidelineart
🙋🏼♀️🇺🇸🙏🏻
Always an interesting adventure and history lesson watching discover artifacts. The "money clip", stamped "Modess." is likely the hardware from a Modess sanitary napkin belt used many, many years ago. Thankfully, we've come a long way in that department.
14:59. Hi Nicola, Bob Knight here again! I just love your channel and come here as often as I remember to do. ANYHOO, the money clip, which didn't make the roundup, is a garter to hold up a man's socks (or, most likely hosiery!). I don't know when they were used in the UK, but I can imagine that a military man or a POSH person might have lost that when the elasticated ribbon that runs through it broke. In my younger days, I actually used them because my legs were chubby and my socks kept falling down!! Sending you hugs from Sweden, dear friend.
Everytime you speak of the ships holding prisoners it reminds me of books my Dad read about the horror of being on those vessels. Some for stealing a piece of bread when the people were starving.
I love everything! I see crows almost everyday here in Pennsylvania. They are so fun to watch and hear. My friend calls me a crow because I walk looking down to find treasures! Thank you for this experience!❤🇺🇸
#tidelineart
I love the peaceful sound of the waves, the sound of the squishy mud as you walk, and I find your voice soothing and delightful! I started watching your videos when I was recovering from cancer surgery. Sending love from Nova Scotia! #tidelineart
My wife and I look forward to your videos. We watch them with Sunday lunch. #tidelineart
It is sad to see the imprints of these treasures be washed away with the tide, but theres also something beautiful about it. It has one last opportunity to make an imprint on this world (and on you) before its job is done, its story has been told, and it is free to fade away. Love your videos! One day I'll make it out there and do some picking of my own!#tidelineart
I loved the old key!!! And the crows flipping the rocks looking for their treasures❤️
#tidelineart
Loved watching the crows. People don’t seem to realize how smart they are.
Lots of great finds this adventure. I really liked that metal disc. All the stamping reminded me of a magical talisman. #tidelineart
