Hi all, I'm diving headfirst into fossicking as a new hobby, and used the Kings birthday long weekend (cheers big ears) to take my first trip to Beaumaris Bay in Melbourne, Australia. I picked up a few interesting bits and bobs, hoping to get some more knowledgeable eyeballs on them for identification. I've mainly referred to this document to make my best guess of each - Fossils of Beaumaris. There's another post from another user with some photos of the area here - http://www.thefossilforum.com/index.php?/topic/133429-fossil-hunting-trip-at-beaumaris-bay/ My guesses - 1 - Partial Lovenia woodsi (heart urchin) 2 - Partial Lovenia woodsi (heart urchin) 3 - Dolphin or porpoise periotic (inner ear bone) (wishful thinking?) 4 - Haven't the foggiest. Sorry I'm not able to get a clearer photo, not holding my breath for an ID on this one. 5 - Some type of ironstone structure? Thanks for any pointers!

Hi I’ve been to some fossil sites over the year including: batesford quarry, Beaumaris fossil site and jan juc, but I’ve been trying to find more places online but unfortunately I haven’t been able to find any places on small forums etc mostly just the popular places most people know of. If anyone knows of any places that they are willing to share or talk about I’d be greatly appreciated and if you don’t want the place as public info I’m open to private messages
