Cool Fall day at the North Sulphur River

[shel67]

It was a beautiful day at the North Sulphur River in Ladonia, Texas. The river is nearly dry, so visibility was really good for searching. I sifted around the puddles and gravel bars and I found several pieces of baculite, a small gastropod (I love those), and a small piece of tooth enamel (mastodon I believe?) I always love finding that... even if it’s a small piece!

Looks like you had a great day!  The North Sulphur River is always a real joy!

Yes it is @Fruitbat! Beautiful and ever changing!

Yeah...now if we can get one big rain to expose some new stuff and then have a nice stretch of cool, dry weather (yeah...I know...I'm asking a lot for Texas weather)!

Nice finds!  I love the beautiful black colour of your fossils - very different from what I find up here...
