sharko69 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Well the weather was perfect yesterday in Texas so we packed some snacks for a day on the creek. Spent several hours getting wet, getting muddy and finding the occasional tooth as well. My six year old son spends a lot of his time collecting oyster fossils, (any suggestions on what to do with a five gallon bucket of oyster shells, let me know). We had a great day and even found a couple of nice teeth to boot. Found several drum teeth as well. Very cool. First is a nice P. whipplei.

Uncle Siphuncle Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Oysters...maybe give him an area for a rock garden? Big oysters could be used to line flower beds with more flair than rocks. That would give him an objective too. Grüße, Daniel A. Wöhr aus Südtexas "To the motivated go the spoils." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seaforth Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Awesome! There is not much better than to hunt fossils with your kids. My youngest (6) enoys it too. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
