Fall promises to be spectacular in many ways. If you dream of colors, you will like the following.

This time, I chose a theme to showcase my special finds of the day.

My first post was so popular that I decided to do a second. I went to the same place, and found more many rich and colorful fossils, and got enough material to write to you about it.

Hello guys! I did some cleaning in the backyard in Deux Montagnes, 10 km North of Montreal. In a piece of rock I found some fossils of mostly bryozoan. Could you suggest what time these could be? I guess it is near Ordovician. It is sedimentary, 2 layers of such sediments, between them there is quartz or silicium rich sedimentary layer . The layer on the top is fragile, layers bellow are hard. 1, 2. 3, 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.
