did I just find amber on this tree? it is definitely hardened resin and some blobs have that shattered look. also its not an evergreen such as a pine, it looks like a decidous tree that I cant name because I am neither a botanist nor a native english speaker.
Leave some genetic material for octopus scientists to revive you from in ten million years

Let me go scrape some off op's mom's face real quick.
this one time I found a blob of amber with a mosquito in it, I ate it and I transformed into a dinosaur
permanently
it's a real life changer anon, do it
very funny
thats a bummer. I might try to simulate that enviorment
>I might try to simulate that enviorment
Only takes a few million years.
No, but it's on it's way. Now it just needs to be buried somewhere away from rain and bugs, subjected to high pressure and temperature, and wait for a long time to fossilize.
amber is the bees tits. I remember when Jurassic Park came out and my science teacher told us all about amber I could hardly believe such an amazing thing could exist, packed with prehistoric pollen and dust and little crawlies
its a bit too hard to tell from the close up photo, but did it smell sweet? it could be cottonwood sap
it doesnt smell like anything and is hard as fuck. i thought it might not be fully fledged amber but perhaps there is some small parts of it in the tree.
its full of holes from which hardened sap comes out.
interesting. when i was young and naive i ate pine sap thinking it would taste like maple syrup LOL big mistake no more parasites though in my gut
leave some semen anon, in the future in some million years, maybe you might be brought back to life like in jurassic park
But it won't be him
It will just be his children since semen
Going by what bark I can see, I'd say it's cherry tree gum.

The huge patch of deadwood with fungus growing on it definitely indicates the tree is stressed.
Nah it's sap. Still, take as much as you can. That shit is a really good firestarter, and actually pretty pricy if you look online from what I hear
You can eat that shit. Doesn't taste like anything but we did it all the time as kids
No but if you find some of that on a spruce tree you can chew it like gum.
you need 1000's of years to turn resin into amber
basically your post could be a photo of a piece of coal and "is this diamond that i just found" text
Saw a similar thing earlier, birch tree- any idea?
