These are some of my fossil collection. i took most of the pictures. I have lots of them.
These feather fossils probably belonged to a velociraptor .
Slender high spired shells called turritella are inside these rocks. Today these ancient creatures are still alive. I have never seen 1.
this cast of a trilobite skeleton is 2000000 years old!!!!!!!!!
This is petrified wood. there are 2 different kinds of wood here cycad and conifer the cycad is light and the conifer is dark.
Thanks for sharing the pictures and descriptions of your fossil collection, I especially like the petrified wood examples. It’s good of you to share your collection, so that others can benefit from your knowledge of fossils!
Oscar – what a great collection you have. Did you find them yourself? If you did, where did you find them? Have you been to the Joggins Fossil Cliffs in Nova Scotia? I found a fossil there once. http://jogginsfossilcliffs.net/
Thank you for sharing.
