Welcome to the forum! Unfortunately, I'm not seeing a fossil here. I think it's just an eroded rock, quartzite maybe.

Happy hunting,

Hello Kim, and welcome to the Forum. :) 

 

Unfortunately, you have a quartzite or chert rock. :(  Sorry.

Not a bone. - No bone texture. 

Keep looking, though. ;)

Welcome to the forum! Sadly, I concur with Whodaman and Fossildude19: you have a chunk of quartzite or chert. But keep digging! :)

Welcome to the forum Kim!

 

not a fossil I'm afraid but an interestingly shaped rock. 

 

Make a a new post in the general fossil discussion area stating roughly where you are. You might get some guidance from members of good sites near you to hunt. :)
