They call them bird baths. Someone has the actual fossil in their collection. Lucky!

Many times I've wondered how much there is to know.

I don't beleive there would have been anything collected form there. I think it is simply an impression but I could be wrong.

A fossil hunter needs sharp eyes and a keen search image, a mental template that subconsciously evaluates everything he sees in his search for telltale clues. -Richard E. Leakey
