Friday I was able to take advantage of having the day off from work with no Honey-do list to bog me down. What is a Man to do? Go on a fossilhunt of course! It had been awhile since my last hunt in New Jersey so I was due. I almost didn't go as I wasn't feeling the best, but I decided not to let that ruin the day. I spent about 5 hours digging in 30° weather. It did snow for about the last hour or 2, but it didn't bother me. I moved alot of rock and was rewarded with some Goodies. My favorite finds were some Greenops trilobites. Also found some nice brachiopods and bivalves. There is some plant material found at the site. So far I had only found single isolated branches but this time I found a piece with multiple branches. I hope you will enjoy!

So my son and I have been looking almost exclusively for signs of vertebrate life in Pennsylvania and almost exclusively and obviously in road cuts. My goal this year is to expand a little. I would like to visit Gilboa, site of the earliest known forest! That part of eastern NY state was the shoreline of an inland sea in the Appalachian basin during the middle Devonian. Many field trips are described here of fossils from that inland sea but almost exclusively invertebrate. I know in the past fossils have been found but I'm wondering if anything recent? I would assume if someone has a site they probably don't want to share specifics but just looking for what if anything people have found?

Some classmates and I found these materials resembling an arthropod with a potential matching trace while having a field day a few weeks back. Due to the strange preservation and limited material, we've been struggling to ID them. We believe this looks like a partial, segmented arthropod- but it doesn't have the typical higher-quality carbonized preservation. Does anyone have any ideas? Canajoharie River - Canajoharie NY.

Hi everyone. I enjoy all things outdoors and am fairly new to fossil identification. My son and I enjoy going to Penn Dixie Fossil Park in our neck of the woods and are slowly expanding our knowledge. I figured this would be a great way to do that as well. Happy to be here!

Hi there, I am new and seeking some help. My son found this fossil in a creekbed while we were hiking in southern Erie County, NY and we are trying to figure out what it is. Any help and tips are greatly appreciated.
