Recommended Posts

It’s been a long time since I posted here. So here’s a thanks to everybody that’s helped me out in the past on here. It’s seriously appreciated. 

So. Here’s a lovely 6 inch Hildoceras I found recently at Kettleness, I’m the Yorkshire coast. She’s a beauty. A few of the outer whorl chambers are a little crush, but it just adds to the piece of think :D

Could even be this weekend ;)  some big tides, strong winds and rain are hitting our coast this weekend. I’m hoping for some big cliff falls!

So here’s an up to date picture of it. Not much matrix left to remove, then once I have my abrasion unit it should be complete

Thank you very much good sir! Hopefully this weekend will be the next hunt, although I’m purely searching for icthyosaur ;)
