Stratford Hall July 9th

I spent a FANTASTIC day at the Stratford Hall cliffs yesterday courtesy of Mid Atlantic Fossil and Nature Trips. HUGE thanks to Cathy for organizing the outing as it was one of the best days I can remember having (collecting or otherwise!)

Found a great many teeth during the 4 hours (particularly for a relative newcomer). Favorites of the day were the nice croc at top, a few of the more complete hemis, my first makos, and.... the VERY partial Meg at far left under the bottle cap. I saw the root sticking out of the sand, my heart skipped a beat, and then I discovered, much to my dismay, that almost the entire tooth was broken off. Oh well, I'll save the intact tooth for next time!!

Happy hunting,

Nice collection, Like the Hemis too.  Is that a Mackerel shark tooth? What is the object in the top left corner?

I believe @SailingAlongToo runs these tours and I would have gone but had to move to Utah for a new job. Excellent finds you have! Nice Mako!

Sorry!  I meant top right.

My amateur's eyes say that's a vertebrae, but that may be wishful thinking!
