Found this rock on the shore of Lake Michigan near the beach canal entry to Lake Macatawa. Looks like the inside of a walnut. Thanks

Concretion. This look seems to be associated with layers shell fossils sometimes.

Looks to be a concretion to me also. Probably it has a high level of iron in its composition.

Nice one.  Did you cut it in half or is that the way you found it?

Thanks, as it is, it broke in two on the way home this week, but it didn't have any other pieces.
