A decent creek hunt

[Fin Lover]

I haven't posted a trip report in a while and, although I didn't find anything amazing yesterday, I thought I would show what a decent day looks like for me.  I would have loved to have hunted for a few more hours, but health problems limit what I can do. 

 

I don't find many I. retroflexus, so this was nice.  It has a really pretty sheen.

 

I like posterior angustidens, but I always find them missing a bit.  All of the day's angustidens were broken.

 

I don't find a ton of odontocete teeth, so I enjoy finding them (I think that's what the 3rd one is):

 

And then just the usual miscellaneous (verts, ray parts, steinkerns, etc.):

 

And, of course, other shark and barracuda teeth.  Some are in good shape (1st pic), but there are always a ton that aren't (2nd pic):

 

Other than that, there are some random unidentifiable bones and bits that aren't worth showing (including a possible root of an odontocete tooth with no crown at all).  

 

So, there is a decent day for me.  No cow sharks, no mammoth or sloth teeth, but I got to enjoy nature and pick up a few fossils.    Thanks for reading!

as @Shellseeker can attest - this is in fact cetacean!

 

awesome finds though, especially for a shorter/decent day.

Looks like a decent day out to me! Good finds, and a day spent in nature is always a good thing. Thanks for sharing!
