BrettonCa Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Hopefully this is good enough picture quality. I found them in Turners Falls, Ma, where trace fossils are abundant. I think they may be burrows. ID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 (edited) Not sure there is enough detail in your pics to make a determination one way or the other. I've circled some interesting looking features, but, with so little detail, it's hard to say for sure. They could just be sedimentary structures.

Scylla Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 I am admittedly bad at seeing the ichnofossils, but the one in the largest circle Tim drew looks like a bird foot to my untrained eye. Can't wait for the members with some knowledge to chime in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 (edited) Given the location I would be inclined to think they may be small reptilian tracks. Or at least one on a surface with other traces. Edited March 20, 2016 by Rockwood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrettonCa Posted March 21, 2016 Author Share Posted March 21, 2016 Thanks for the responses! Exciting that they could be reptilian traces! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
