John, piranha and Skylar; thank you. Roger, I am honored that you cast your vote for my starfish. Your Eldredgeops plate is a very nice piece also. Coco this lettle star has become the centerpiece of my collection.

Living in NC I always envisioned that if I ever did win a fossil of the moth it would be in the vertebrate category. NC is not exactly known for it's inverts. So this is quite a thrill to have found this amazing fossil and to win this award.

I get my rocks off, bulldozers and dirt
