Hi everyone,
I'm really late on this one, but better late than never!
On the 6th of April I went to the Banjaard beach again, and although our hunt was short it was super interesting!
I started off by searching the coastline, where I found lots of bivalves such as Tridonta borealis, Mya truncata, Mytilus edulis, Arctica islandica, etc.
After a while I went higher up the beach and started looking for the gastropod shell banks we had a lot of luck at last time. Unfortunately I didn't manage to find them... which tells me that the banks come and go, and that that previous hunt was just really lucky. However we got lucky again this time, by finding another type of shell bank!
This giant 'cloud' you see here yielded a crazy amount of smaller rare fossils!
