LiamL Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 I've got got back from a 6 day trip with fellow forum member @DanJeavs We've both had some brilliant finds, here are some of mine. I've made a video showing some of them. We were lucky our trip timed perfectly with a storm which made conditions pretty good. Hope you enjoy. 12 Yorkshire Coast Fossil Hunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nimravis Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 For some reason it would not play for me, but that is probably “user error” on my part, but I did move the scroll bar and were able to see your finds. Love the little ammonite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caldigger Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Must be nice to be able to pick things up off the ground without having to break your back digging for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paleoworld-101 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Splendid result!!! That storm worked brilliantly for you! I love those big ichthy verts, i can't seem to find complete ones of that size there. You found so many bones too, it's usually quite hard to get a bone haul like that. I probably walked right over some of those when i was there last month. "In Africa, one can't help becoming caught up in the spine-chilling excitement of the hunt. Perhaps, it has something to do with a memory of a time gone by, when we were the prey, and our nights were filled with darkness..." -Eternal Enemies: Lions And Hyenas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember it’s my first time ever collecting there but i’ve got my eye in collecting more local to me. 1 Yorkshire Coast Fossil Hunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say lots of people have their eye in but there usually just isn't that much bone on the beach, the storm explains a lot, very well timed indeed. Also what tells you that one piece was plesiosaur?

Also what tells you that one piece was plesiosaur? In the video. It's either a part of a huge ichthosaur rib or a plesiosaur fragment. The cross-section doesnt look right for jaw bone. I've showed it afew of the local collectors on the beach who said it's most likely plesi. It's always hard to tell with such fragmentary remains. It's either one or the other.
