Fossil Hunting along the Grand River

Over the weekend on Saturday, The boys in our family went out to Grand River Waterloo for fossil hunting. Although I do not have pictures of us hunting the fossils.

Here are some fossils we found.

I feel that the names can explain a lot about the rocks (Appreciate any help naming them). I kept the green and black ones since they looked cool (Shiny:drool:). 

 

For fossil hunting, we looked for the layered rock and crossed our fingers hoping for the best:fingerscrossed: (Anywhere I can find out more :hammer01:  strategies and techniques). That was how my dad found the fan fossil.

 

The funny thing about the Sun fossil (gonna keep calling it the "Sun Fossil" until I find out the correct naming) was that I found it right next to the place I laid down my water bottle.

Was it planted there or is that normal?? :blink:

 

 

I was going to upload my fossils to the site but I could only put up one and it was too much work. :D

Can someone explain to me how to add more than one picture in your post

 

Thanks

Size is often the issue. There is a 3.95 meg limit per post.

You can reduce the size of the pictures or use replies to post more pictures.

If it still gives upload problems, try refreshing the page.

I can only access this one via your link. :(

If you crop your photos, they become much smaller, and it shows the fossil better. ;) 

 

 

Photos should always be posted directly to the Forum. 

Links disappear, accounts become inactive, and then it renders your topic useless.
