Been at it for about a year now and I try to hit the creeks at least twice/month if I can help it. The "loose" pics are either newer finds that haven't made their way into the display yet, or finds that have their own display. Most of these were rescued from the Gainesville area. Some are from the Peace River & Joshua Creek, as well as Manasota, Caspersen, Venice & Fort Clinch beaches. I was also lucky enough to discover a previously unknown spot VERY close to home, while scouting one day! Dr. Hulbert (w/ UF) confirmed it is a new spot, but was reluctant to check it out as none of my initial finds were extinct species... I have since found horse teeth at that location and can't wait for water levels to go back down!!! Hoping to add a few new species to my collection on my upcoming trip to GMR & one of the Summerville creeks (not sure which one yet but would love to find my first Angi & GW)... the GW in my pics was actually found by my Grandfather in Panama in the 70s! Thanks for looking : )

The weather has FINALLY cooled down here in Florida, and it is comfortable to dig like maniacs in the shallow fossil-bearing creeks. The mosquitoes, thunderstorms, and risk of heat stroke has finally subsided, so we went out to take advantage of the beautiful Florida winter and find some shark teeth! So @Cris and myself headed out to a trusty old site that we have not visited in a long time. Luckily, some recent rains have moved things around and we were able to find some untouched places. I ended up finding one of the nicest Megalodon shark teeth I have ever found in my life! Along with some other amazing juvenile Megalodon teeth, Mako's, and even a piece of Mastodon tooth! What an absolutely insane day. I still can't stop looking at the tooth!
