Everhardus Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 After a pretty succesfull hunt in Germany last week i’m now in Belgium for a week with my kids. Due to Covid this trip was poorly planned. We were basically happy to find accomodation at last notice and have a nice stream nearby for a swim. Arriving here i noticed a place called Barvaux which sounded familiar. Yesterday i suddenly realised it is a well know site for fossils from the Carboniferus. So without any tools ( all left at home ) we still managed to find these Sperifer’s. I’ll probably check the site again later this week for better ones.... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossildude19 Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Not bad, for an impromptu visit to a fossil site! Good luck on your next outing there.
