I pulled off the side of the road because this mud slope looked interesting. It is near downtown Kansas City Missouri. I found it to be very sparse in the way of fossils however I did find one lone gastropod. I cannot make a positive ID because it is badly weathered and/or poorly preserved. I tried many different ways of photographing it but no matter what kind of light, angle, distance or camera settings, I could not get any of the details to show up well. I penciled in the spiral and the sutures I can see when the fossil is in hand. Just an interesting piece and thought it odd that this was the ONLY fossil I found on this entire hillside. Check it out!
