Tidgy's Dad Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 I think the top right one is a coprolite as I have one quite similar. I would agree with Aviculopecten for the one bottom right and thus, probably, the other one as well. Not sure about the other one. 1 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend.

abyssunder Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Nice finds! Specimen C0080 looks like a coprolite, to me. 1 " We are not separate and independent entities, but like links in a chain, and we could not by any means be what we are without those who went before us and showed us the way.

Seems that E0020 is going to be a problem. It has some interesting patterns happening that don't show well in the photo. Mark. Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them!
