I found this on Ocean Beach in SF. It looks like an echidnoid to my uneducated eyes, but there may also be something else. Any help appreciated-thanks.

Hello new member here, my name is Robert! I found this site while searching google in an attempt to identify some beautiful items I came across recently while at the beach in san francisco. I understand most of you guys refer to yourself as amateurs, though reading a few forum topics before creating my account I was impressed with the amount of detailed information in regards to your studies and findings. That being said I must admit I am %110 amateur in my knowledge of fossils, different time periods, etc. So please forgive me if I seem to ask simple questions like I don't know what I am tal

Hello, SF Bay Area native here, totally new to this forum and to collecting anything other than rocks found on the beach. On one excursion just after a stormy high tide on a private access beach south of Pomponio, I came across these two cetacean(?) fossils(?) washed ashore, each of which weigh ~5+ lbs. Any further info anybody could offer would be great!

Gem, Mineral, And Fossil Show This Weekend In Sf Bay Area
siteseer posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
Today, I checked out a show in Los Altos, CA (town between Palo Alto and Mountain View, northern California). It's the 5th Annual "Recreation with Rocks" taking place Saturday and Sunday (Oct 20-21) at the Los Altos Civic Center Youth Center at One N. San Antonio Road. It's a couple of miles south of the intersection of San Antonio Road and El Camino Real. There are signs for it around that intersection. The venue was rather small - basically classroom size - though it was well-attended in the time I was there. The only fossil dealer was the same one who had set up at the Santa Clara Vall -
Can anyone identify these? About an inch in diameter, and inch long, found 1 hr north of san francisco along coast.
