HemiHunter Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 I took my kids yesterday for a quick hike out to Douglas Point to get some exercise and check out the Potomac. I wasn't expecting much because the tide was still pretty high and the water a bit muddy. But conditions were better than expected, so we were able to look around a bit. About 10 minutes in, I spotted a really nice little otodus in a submerged gravel line just below one of the bluffs. (Very tricky to see these guys, sometimes, against the dark sand.) It's in great condition and looks like it just came out of the bluff. We poked around as the tide went out for the next hour and came up with some more smaller teeth, some plates, and a few pieces of turtle shell, but nothing as nice as that first tooth. Anyway, it was a fun time and kept the kids busy for awhile! I was happy to find a decent tooth under tricky conditions. Enjoy the pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
