Crab? Shrimp? Brittle Star Arms? or just rocks? Canyon Lake Central Texas

Was out near Canyon Lake today and found these oddities. I think my expectations are overreaching my reality, but I sure would like these to be something other than just something boring, like worm burrows.....sorry worm burrows, no disrespect. Any help is appreciated!

Brittle Star Arms? Seriously...I know these are probably worm burrows, but hey, a girl can hope.....

Never been there so it's not much more than a guess, but I'd say rudist and hetromorph ammonite.

Edit: Worm tubes on the second one would still be a step up from burrows.:)

I would go with rudist for the first (see the transverse, flexuous lirae on it) and worm tubes for the second.

Oh good!  I have friends in Canyon Lakes, I was really hoping there would be something around there to give me an excuse to visit. :thumbsu:
