Shamalama Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 That is a fine looking piece of bone, Gery. The polishing makes it look much nicer too.

This landscape reminds you something you're nostalgic about ? Or went you there ? The landscapes of coast line with cliffs Always reminds me souvenirs of holidays.

I just basically love to search for fossils at the seaside, whether it's at Whitby, Vaches Noir or anywhere else, it doesn't matter. And I don't get the chance to do that very often. 2 Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
