peacefossil Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Last weeks trip, just getting this up now. Spent a few hours came up pretty empty. I know you guys like to see out in the field shots, so on to the pictures... That isn't all I got just the first few. I will try and post all the finds later. Enjoy!

earthdog Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 The site pictures are beautiful. You're lucky you can hunt in Gainesville this time of year. I like to hunt on the Peace and my spots are too far underwater right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peacefossil Posted September 5, 2009 Author Share Posted September 5, 2009 Can I bother you for some close-ups of a particular item? No problem I will see what I can do. Very tiny and probably difficult to photo Yes it is nice in the gville creeks, but I love my river and hoping to return soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peacefossil Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 blurry but you get the idea. I'll try and get some better ones in the next few days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cris Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 Ahhh, I know that tree in the first picture all too well. If I had known you were going, I could have showed you some of the better spots. Still, very colorful teeth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peacefossil Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 cris anytime just pm me! I'm a decent drive away, but I love to hunt. I tried to gather interest right before the board got updated... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 ...I'll try and get some better ones in the next few days If you can, that would be great; this one is tantalizingly tough.

peacefossil Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 I mostly know teeth. What are we looking at here Aus? hours of entertainment for you! little better pictures although still quickly taken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serack Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 wow, for a gainsville creak, that is a beautifully delicate find. I am sure Auspex will do us proud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 (edited) Well....I'm stumped. Looking at the first pics, I thought for sure it was the proximal end of an avian humerus femur, and all I had left to do was ID it: With the new pics, I lost all my confidence; It might be a humerus femur, but of what I have no idea... I have never seen an avian humerus femur head with no neck. I hope another "bone head" will weigh in; I'm lost. Edited September 8, 2009 by Auspex Mis-typed, due to brain lock.

Nicholas Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 That Creek is very beautiful and I like the finds, I'm particularly interested in the same bone as Auspex. Time to get the books out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peacefossil Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 Hah I thought for sure you would give me an id. I went nuts searching for it online. It did look like a avian humerus to me, but at the same time not one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Hah I thought for sure you would give me an id. I went nuts searching for it online. It did look like a avian humerus to me, but at the same time not one. Sorry. It could even be a fish bone for all I can tell. To top it all off, I typed "humerus" when I meant "femur" . I ought to quit when I'm behind, but I'm going to correct my post so anyone reading it in the future won't be thrown off.

Gatorman Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I was thinking it may be a turtle or maybe a large frog leg. I don't really know but it may lead you to some answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, every mammal femur I've seen has a dimple for insertion of a ligament - don't know about reptiles though. From Jim Tatum's website, wadda y'all think? frog humerus - looks pretty much like a match to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 From Jim Tatum's website, wadda y'all think? WooHoo! Now I can sleep at night; thank you Don! Just curious; did this thing look like a Native American war club to anyone else (or was it just my lack of sleep)?
