Cretaceous

BPS was invited by Adiel at the University of Alabama to hunt the chalk gullies of South Alabama Saturday... couldn't of asked for better weather! Wow! It turned out to be a gorgeous day, with the weather cooperating and temperature not steaming hot like it usually is on days like this in the South. About 20 enthusiastic people showed up for this event including 6 if Adiel's students to hunt fossils as well and meet some of us who does this for a hobby. Many fossils were found that day by all and was just an awesome time to be out in nature and enjoying the presence of other who love to hunt fossils. Shark and fish teeth, Mosasaur and shark verts, shells, barnacles and an assortment of other fossils were found. Folks didn't leave there disappointed that's for sure! We look forward to the next trip down. Thank you Adiel and the University of Alabama! 

It was a gorgeous day to go creek hunting in Mississippi with BPS! We were the first ones there and had the park to ourselves up till around 3ish. The water that morning was freezing cold, but our bodies acclimated to it, and it helped the temperature shot up to 78 degrees! After 3ish, about 20 people showed up to party with us... got a lil' crowded, but most left after an hour. Here is my haul, all found under the bridge where it has been picked over... ya gotta dig a lil' deeper! Most are Goblin Shark teeth with maybe a Cretolamna and Squalicorax? A tooth that still is in the matrix with blade showing. Another tooth, has the root attached and looks like a Mosasaur tooth? Pieces of bone, broken Gastropod steinkern, pottery sherds with faint designs on them, and the broken shark teeth found as well. Also brought home half a bucket of gravel to micro sift! Three years ago, when visiting there, I found squat! This time around, I was happy with what was found!
