MeargleSchmeargl Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Really neat brachiopods! Is that a green snake in the last photo? (Opheodrys vernalis) Every single fossil you see is a miracle set in stone, and should be treated as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tidgy's Dad Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Nice brachiopods, then lower down some crinoids stems and finally a not fossil snake. All very nice. 2 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peat Burns Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Wow, that green snake is awesome. You don't see very many of those anymore it seems like. Is that a smooth green snake or a rough green snake? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darktooth Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I especially like the crinoids pieces all the ones I have found in my area are a lot smaller. Gotta love the snake though! I like Trilo-butts and I cannot lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
