Missouri creek bed find- what is this?? Its fairly uniform shape, measurements-‘thinly sliced’, curvatures etc are throwing me off,  ...

... naturally occurring? Nonsense?!

The top photo has pieces of branching bryozoan in it. The colonies could get quite elaborate and would be fragile. The third photo shows a fenestrate bryozoan.

just a piece of limestone or sandstone with bryozoan inclussions, probably Fenestrella sp.:

Man!!! So much more less exciting than I thought, I wasn’t sure if the rock itself was anything special. Thank you!
