Christmas Carboniferous Hunting

Recommended Posts

Happy holidays everybody!!!!

 

finally after Christmas day, I went to look for fossils. I have to wait some hours (ice on the road), but it was worth It.

The fossilfield was covered of sun light, so the rocks has covered with ice (¿Do you remember Jack Nicholson in The Shining? something like that), so I took carefully the specimens to home.

Not too much time looking for, but at least I found some interesting plants.

 

I hope you like it :rolleyes:

Nice finds. I’m hoping that’s the only parallel your fossil hunt had with the movie...:heartylaugh:

Thanks for sharing! Bravo for facing the cold in the name of fossil hunting.

 

I love it when you can see wrinkles and impressions of leaves laying on top of other plant material, it really emphasizes to me that these fossils represent the physical remnants of an actual moment in time.
