Went fossil collecting today, it was too beautiful to be in front of a computer working! Found a number of Ichno Fossils consisting of Arborichnus Repetita (small horseshoe crab resting traces) and what could be trilobite tracks? Comments and identification are welcomed. Carboniferous Period/Pottsville Formation/Alabama USA Dual Arborichnus Repetita resting trace Overlap of Arborichnus Repetita resting trace Arborichnus Repetita resting trace to the left, not sure what the trace is to the right? Lower portion, appears to be a party of AR resting traces and the larger tracks could be that of trilobites?

Howdy Ya'll! It was such a pretty day to get out for some Fossil Therapy. I checked out a new site today even though I drive by it a pretty good bit. From what I can tell from the road, I saw concretions scattered about the hillside. I stopped today to take a look and brought 5 home with me to do the freeze/thaw method to see what they contain? I also noticed a layer with the concretions sticking out...I wished I had my camera! Next time I'm there I will get a picture. My next trip took me to the Resting Trace site. It had rained a pretty good bit last week, the rock cut laid down another layer of shale shards, as you can see this is what I found. Hope you can see them in the picture. Not a bad haul for being out for 2 hours in the sunshine. Not sure what this patter is from, I thought it was interesting and picked it up.
