Mariia Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Hi all! I am completely new to fossil collection, and have started it only because I had an assignment for a class. Now, however,after visiting couple of fossil sites and getting pictures of what I found, I got excited and curious. I searched internet but only get lost. So my main question is whether at least one of my finds is a fossil, or all of them are rocks? Pictures and information about location below. 1. Alki Point, Seattle. Found it in a shale. About 3 cm long 2. Alki Point, Seattle. Found it in shale. White rings in shale about 3 mm in diameter: 3. West coast of Olympic Peninsula,WA found it on the beach near Cape Alava 4 cm wide, 2.5 high 4. Find it near Clallam Bay, WA. 6 cm long, 3 high Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kane Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 The pictures were there initially, but I suspect this was linked from Google. If that is the case, please try to upload them directly from your computer. ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daves64 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 Odd, I could see the pics yesterday on my desktop computer, but not last night on my laptop at work. I can see them again on my desktop. Maybe it has something to do with bandwidth/ internet connections? My desktop is on broadband & my laptop is on WiFi. I'm seeing them just fine right now.

Rockwood Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 I think it's most likely a crab parts in concretion, but can't actually be certain of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
