ShibaLegend Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 These aren't my only finds but these are the "big" rocks that I have. I've found a lot of pet wood (no palm sadly) and a lot of agate (which ain't a fossil!) down here which is always a treat to find. Anyways here is the first picture of my collection, showing the overview. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShibaLegend Posted February 22 Author Share Posted February 22 (edited) A lot of the rocks here came from a single trip that had rocks that were filled with these rugosa(?) corals, with this one being a flattened example. I'm not exactly sure if these are from Louisiana rock but I find loose rugosa corals pretty often and to me they look the same as these.

ShibaLegend Posted February 22 Author Share Posted February 22 Can't remember where I found this one, just a small hash plate. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShibaLegend Posted February 22 Author Share Posted February 22 This was found on a hiking trip my family went on, Assuming these are scallops? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShibaLegend Posted February 22 Author Share Posted February 22 This was found at the I-49 side of the road site, pretty much the only well known fossil site in Louisiana. A nice snail shell imprint. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
