I found this near a lake. I know, not impressive, but I am still curious.

It looks like just a rock to me. I don't see any fossils there.

Maybe the impression of pebbles if this came from a conglomerate. There are a lot of lakes in the world, so it's kinda difficult to determine the stratigraphy.

Not fossils, in my opinion.

It looks like a weathered piece of limestone. You have a good eye for detail! Limestone often takes on shapes similar to fossil bone, and the texture can appear porous in a way similar to fossil bone.  However, porosity in fossil bone tends to run deeper and be more uniform. I can see why this piece drew your attention.

 

Good luck in your hunting!
