There were two large clumps I found in a Red Clay Deposit behind the barn. At first I thought this was the illusive head of the beast I've been looking for but after cleaning, something different appeared. After cleaning >>>>>>>>>>
Here are a few more of my finds.
Eggs?
Eggs?
This is in the rock step garden, it is a massive piece that was placed with the tractor.
Possible forearm or Pseudo fossil?
Looks like a tooth but could be the end of a rib but most likely a Pseudo fossil.
All in all, these are fossils of one form or another. A Pseudo fossil is older then dinosaur fossils and technically they are mineral formations from the earth changing and interaction between many mineral and natural chemical compounds.
< Same rock after cleaning.
Basically, as I cleaned out the red clay and some of the sandstone, these pictures show what the structure was comprised of. There seems to be a ridge of a possible backbone, a disk and my teeth might be ribs or parts of ribs.
Pieces I have found in the Red Clay deposit.
The smaller one could be a possible disc in a tail. It has the two points that cross for the spinal cord or Pseudo fossils?
Smaller pieces I have put in the birdbath, made of these rocks.
It's rounded
There is so much of it around here and I am still looking and digging holes all over the place but it's interesting. I can tell you I am not a dinosaur hunter and what I find will be sold to collectors as sculptures.
More to follow. If you are interested in my finds or have questions or suggestions, please feel free to email me at Marty49fl@hotmail.com
