Quick walk in my local creek

Took an hour for a walk in a creek not far from where I live. We have had rains earlier this week so thought I would take a look at what washed out. This creek does not produce a ton but always gives up something if you look hard enough. Found a jaw section, possibly small mosasaur and a partial turtle scute. Wish I had more time to get out there but very pleased to have found this.

Nice finds- wish I had a creek to walk in- the only thing I have is the Chicago River and the only things that can be found there are Super Rats that stand in their hind legs and want to box. Lol.

I like Trilo-butts and I cannot lie.

Great jaw section, congrats :fistbump:

Every once in a great while it's not just a big rock down there!

Thank you. Only second mosasaur jaw piece I have found. I found a small mosasaur vert in the same area last year as well as several bone frags.
