Three fossils dug from Fossil Oregon: First 2 fossils are a bit of a jumble, not hoping for a specific id, but mostly wondering if these are plant/seed matter or bones of some stipe? If they are bones would anyone be able to tell if they were fish, reptile or ? Last one seems very insect like to me, though this could be just wishful thinking. Am I in anyway correct here? Thanks so much. Austin

Hello fossil friends! I'm a bit late getting to this, I've had some personal complications. Late last month I had the absolute pleasure of going on my first fossil hunt! I'm calling on your assistance for some IDs as I'm extremely new to this part of the fossil world. From my research I was hunting in the oligocene/eocene volcanic deposits of the Clarno Formation. Here are some of our finds, curious if any of you recognize these or can point me to some good literature. Unfortunately I have very little knowledge of fossil flora in general. One of our common finds were these robust orange fern pinna, which from my research I believe may be Dioon sp, or saccoloma Gardneri We also found a few of these, which seem to also be fern pinna, they are lighter in coloration and seem to have a higher density of pinnules so I believe it's a different species. Not sure about this one
