I am totally absorbed in studying this matrix. There are so many different species present! Did you try any of this stuff? It is addicting. I am getting a bit better with my IDs...it's taking a lot of research tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your diligent work picking through mountains of micro-matrix and then searching through mountains of research to identify your finds is both useful and appreciated by those on TFF. Your excellent micro-photography provides drool-worthy eye candy to those who have never fossil hunted on a micro scale and (I believe) has likely enticed some members to try their hand at expanding their fossil hunting opportunities to their kitchen table. We look forward to reports of your future finds as I'm sure they'll be as envious and jaw-dropping and the ones we've seen so far. Cheers. -Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old bones Posted February 23, 2018 Author Share Posted February 23, 2018 Thank, Ken. I am currently working on photographing the hundreds of tiny bits that I have collected over the past few months. I often don't know how 'good' a fossil is until I see the photo on my computer. Then there is lots of editing and sorting of photos. I plan to upload several more family groups soon.

5 Humper Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Wow. I'm not sure what I like better. The photography, or the bones. I am a herpetologist. Those fossil amphibians are saweet! Thank you for sharing that. Is that late Pleistocene stuff? Do you have access to a comparative collection of extant amphibian skeletons to help with your ID's?
