The world is so full of a number of things…

Math, this early in the year? Trust me, the video of the Fibonacci mathematical sequences in the floral and animal world will take your breath away.

We had lots of discussion on Facebook about Fibonacci numbers in response to this post. Here is a book on numbers in nature that was recommended: The Power of Limits from Shambala Publications http://www.shambhala.com/html/catalog/items/isbn/978-1-59030-259-0.cfm. Another video was suggested too: Doodling in Math (part 1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahXIMUkSXX0&feature=share
