Hiked 4km up this river (with no trail) with this big ol' rock in my backpack to bring it home. The fossil bivalves are Eumarcia (Atamarcia) Thomsoni and are 7.2-15 million years old! The fossilised wood (no, that isn't charcoal) is even older 😳

A Petrified Wood Sphere Araucarioxylon arizonicum Late Triassic, approx (225 million years ago) Chinle Formation, Arizona, United States

6 inches (15 cm) in diameter. 10.1 pounds (4.6 kg).

Displaying tones of brown, pearl, yellow, and orange, this petrified wood specimen has been polished to reveal details of its natural character, outstanding preservation, and well-defined growth rings.

Some glowing rocks! It’s surprisingly hard to get a still photo with my UV flashlight, partly because direct light wants to blow out on my phone but the fluorescence fades quickly as it gets less direct. I think these are okay though! I dubbed the first one the “party bowl”

I was today years old when I heard about the incredible Incense-Cedar Wood Wasp. Syntexis libocedrii is the only living species of Symphytan in the Anaxyelidae. It is considered a living fossil since the family has an extensive Mesozoic fossil record. It has the unique ability to oviposit in burnt incense-cedar. The wood is often still smoldering when the sawfly is laying its eggs. Nature is fascinating.

My fluorescent (glowing) rock and radioactive materials collection that I've been building for about a year with my partner. Looks cooler IRL than what my phone camera can do. I've labelled everything with the color they glow as the text color.

Flynn likes to be involved with everything I do. If he sees me crouch down to look at something &/or pick it up, he likes to come & inspect it as well. In case it's interesting. Or edible. Or both.

In this case, I'd found a fossil. According to Flynn this falls in the "Not Interesting" category but he gave it a polite sniff all the same. Like I politely praise him when he finds & shows me puddles & molehills. We humour each other.

Such a teeny tiny fossil! It's one of the smallest I've found. Probably at least 420 million years old, which is just completely wild.

#I've got a fair sized collection of fossils now #mostly either brachiopods - which look like bi-valve molluscs but aren't... & corals #some of the shell fossils are very well preserved & almost look like they came off a beach that day!#I find them on farmland - ploughing turns the soil & they pop up to the surface. also there are 1 or 2 old quarries in the woods #this one was on the footpath - I bent down to pick up Flynn's toy & spotted it #silurian #fossil #shell #england #dog #flynn
