8-25-22 Mazon Creek Collecting

[Nimravis]

I decided to do a little collecting again this evening, not that I need any more concretions, but I hear them calling to me. 
 

Below is a picture of the concretions that I found this evening.

 

 

I like big concretions, as most people do, but most do not contain anything, so I leave them alone, like I did to the one below.

 

 

My favorite concretions to find are the smaller ones, like the ones below.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The one pictured below is a nice shape, but not perfect.

 

 

 

This larger, flat one is promising, but will most likely be a dud.

 

 

This next piece was showing both ends, at first I thought that it was two different concretions, until I popped it out.

 

 

 

Here are a couple pieces that were found opened.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here is one that I whacked open, I will have to look at it later to see what is included. I was not going to take it, because the shape was not the best.

 

 

A nice view as I was getting on the highway.

This sums up my fossil hunting experience far too accurately!

I hear those same voices.
