Rockin' Ric Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Hello All! Here are some ichno fossils finds from several weeks ago after days of rain we got down here. I love hunting these things and find them fascinating since there is a mystery that surrounds the maker of the trace fossils. Finding the track maker has eluded me although one of these pics might shed some light on one possible track maker...I found an impression of what appears to be the underside of an arthropod? Either way, hopefully someone somewhere might take up the challenge of writing a paper about them in the near future. 7 WELCOME TO ALL THE NEW MEMBERS! If history repeats itself, I'm SO getting a dinosaur. ~unknown www.rockinric81.wixsite.com/fossils Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidgy's Dad Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 How marvelous! The last ones look like arthropod tracks, but no idea about the first ones! Fascinating. Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 Ric, I am always fascinated and amazed by your ichnos. Their makers can't evade you for ever!

MeargleSchmeargl Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Looks like we've got a mystery on our hands. Every single fossil you see is a miracle set in stone, and should be treated as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
