Been at it for about a year now and I try to hit the creeks at least twice/month if I can help it. The "loose" pics are either newer finds that haven't made their way into the display yet, or finds that have their own display. Most of these were rescued from the Gainesville area. Some are from the Peace River & Joshua Creek, as well as Manasota, Caspersen, Venice & Fort Clinch beaches. I was also lucky enough to discover a previously unknown spot VERY close to home, while scouting one day! Dr. Hulbert (w/ UF) confirmed it is a new spot, but was reluctant to check it out as none of my initial finds were extinct species... I have since found horse teeth at that location and can't wait for water levels to go back down!!! Hoping to add a few new species to my collection on my upcoming trip to GMR & one of the Summerville creeks (not sure which one yet but would love to find my first Angi & GW)... the GW in my pics was actually found by my Grandfather in Panama in the 70s! Thanks for looking : )

I found these super cool fossils turned geode today. Any idea what kind of crystals they might be? I was thinking calcite or quartz. Much appreciated. (Edit: Doesn’t react to vinegar, so silica or clear quartz maybe?)

Hey guys I had this collection of fossils and I wanted to show them to you guys. This collection has a few I have questions so about so please let me know about them. Heres the slideshow of the best ones. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1c9audycmGOHZENQjRdXumQot-0HE2oMJBl39AZoU5qM/edit?usp=sharing The most interesting one is this brachiopod, can someone tell me what is going on with it? Thanks!
