Submitted by admin2 on Wed, 08/07/2013 - 11:56pmAfter a morning spent collecting in the HOT gullies, we cooled off at lunch in a torrential downpour. Luckily the weather cleared up in time for collecting in a nearby creek, which was delayed a bit while we had to find the access road under all the kudzu! Yes, it's taking over Alabama!

Submitted by Terry Todd on Tue, 03/05/2013 - 1:41pmIn May BPS members showed up for a weekend of camping and fossil collecting on a private creek in Butler County. Since our last visit a number of high water events had alterered the creek. Places that had been covered in sand were now bare, with rocky, clay bottoms. Numerous small shark teeth, cochina stone, fish vertebrae, and a few pottery shards were found. One area of clay that was seen appeared to be filled with fossil leaves, with ancient leaves. There is a strong possibility that the woody and leaf material found in the clay layers is Cretaceous age.
