So I’m at a point where I think it’d be best to just show you the entire thing that I’m currently looking at, aside from the tons of pieces that I’ve set aside all around this pit I’ve got now. I don’t expect this to sway anyones opinions but it’s very likely the last post I’m going to leave until I can finish cleaning around the edges of it—whatever it is, or isn’t, potentially. So I guess I’m asking now, is this also typical for limestone? Again, I’m on the far northwest edge of San Antonio, pretty much on the helotes hill country city limit—just a couple of miles east from government canyon

Found this in Bandera County, Texas. Seems like teeth coming out but bone structure is present. Measures 3” long by 1.5” wide by 2” high.

found this near Boerne TX. I think the formation is Glen Rose, but unsure, might be Edwards?

Hello, I am new to the forum and know little to nothing about fossils so forgive me if my guesses are off base. I found this fossil (?) in the river bed of the Frio River in the Texas Hill Country (Real County) north west of San Antonio. It is approximately 2 inches long. Thanks to this forum and googling, I'm wondering if this is either rugose coral or heliophyllum coral? Thanks for any info.

Hello, I'm new and know next to nothing about fossils. Found in the Texas Hill Country in the bed of the Frio River. The picture doesn't show, but the shell sparkles. The opposite side of the rock (not pictured) shows only rock, no shell. Thanks in advance for any info.

Is this a fossil?

We stayed at a private ranch this weekend in Kyle, Texas (Hays County). The Blanco River runs right through the property, and tons of rocks line the shoreline. We know absolutely nothing about rocks or fossils, except for what you learn in 5th grade science and that they're pretty cool. But we found some neat rocks that have impressions of shells and some with shells embedded in them. A quick google search points to the rocks being limestone, but not sure. Any help identifying our little treasures is greatly appreciated. Photos of 2 different large rocks are below. Thanks in advance!

Hello there, my name is Cameron and i'm starting this topic to have an open page for the flow of ideas and information about the possible formation of a Hill Country Fossil Club for San Antonio, Austin, and the surrounding areas . This idea has been proposed before on the forums, but it didn't work out, so i'm doing my best to pull everyone together to form some sort of club. It could be anything from an organized monthly meetup for group fossil hunting trips, guest speakers, etc. to a simple email list for members to invite a couple tag-alongs on their upcoming trips. However it takes shape,
