Very smooth, well rounded and unlike any other type of stone in the area. Found washed out from a river bank in Northern Alberta.

Pebbles.

You can't really tell if a stone is a gastrolith unless it's found with others in a group within the skeletal remains of the gizzard area of the animal concerned.

Here is an old post that points out a few more considerations.

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, also are remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. - Douglas Adams, Last Chance to See
