Ordovician Collecting in Lawrenceburg, Indiana

Today I spent a little time in Lawrenceburg, Indiana Collecting some Ordovician fossils. Today I collected some brachiopods, bryozoan and trilo-bits. 

 

I usually do not collect much bryozoan, but I did like this piece.

There is always a lot of bryozoan to be had—

Wonderful specimens. :i_am_so_happy:

That first bryozoan is really super.

And the brachiopods, of course. 

I'll be posting some of the pieces from there you sent me soon. 

Thanks, Ralph and glad you could spend your birthday collecting.

Lovely finds. Is that an isotelus hypostome? I love the petite little star of a crinoid at the top of one of the plates. This sure is different than Florida!!! LOL
