About Mary Anning:
Google has celebrated the 215th anniversary of the birth of British palaeontologist Mary Anning with a special doodle.  Today's colourful Google Doodle shows her uncovering a dinosaur's fossilised remains. 

Mary Anning (21 May 1799 – 9 March 1847) was a British fossil collector, dealer, and palaeontologist who became known around the world for important findings she made in the Jurassic marine fossil beds at Lyme Regis in Dorset, a county in Southwest England on the coast of the English Channel, where she lived. Her work contributed to fundamental changes that occurred during her lifetime in scientific thinking about prehistoric life and the history of the Earth. (Wikipedia)
