im wondering what this might be... it wasnt too big to bring home, just wasnt sure. I have to send the last one off to the museum, they think it might be some kind of dinosaur bone - havent done it yet because it weighs a lot and will cost 20bux to post.
This chunk of fossil hash was given to my father 40 years ago by a guy that said it was from Wyoming-don't know where. something really bad happened to deposit the remains of all these ocean dwellers in one place. I think I see brachiopods, gastropods, crynoides, bryazoans, coral and maybe some sponges.

Cast of a dinosaur claw made in the Fossil Casting Program: www.tyrrellmuseum.com/programs/public/fossil_casting.htm
Found at Mindanao, Phillipines.
It's a badly prepared fossil since the outer shell was lost in the preparation. The chamber separations are however revealed by the fluorescence.
"The fossils represent an extinct type of plant known as lycopods or scale trees - so called because of the scale-like markings left on the trunk and branches when the leaves fell off. Scale trees grew to a height of 45 metres (taller than the trees outside) with a straight trunk and crown of branches. Inside, the trunks were not hard and woody but filled with a soft pith.
The closest living relatives of these giants are small plants known as clubmosses. These primitive scale trees are not related to the trees of today such as oak, elm or pine."

Begg's Park, in Essex, New York is a grassy overlook with a view of Lake Champlain and the distant shore of Vermont and the Green Mountains. If you go down onto the rocky beach, you can sometimes see fossils in the rocks.

Some "random" marine invertebrate Ordovician and Devonian fossils from Upstate NY, that I collected long ago when I was an undergraduate geology major at Adirondack Community College (now SUNY Adirondack) going on amazing field trips with Professor Anson S. Piper, a true "one of a kind" geologist (and Revolutionary War re-enactor), all over NY State. These aren't particularly noteworthy, but more like good examples of the types of abundant invertebrate fossils that you might find in western and central NY. I am trying to identify some of these, as the location data are well gone (except for one of the rocks). I'll add my thoughts and I welcome corrections and other ideas greatly. - OK, this one I know from whence it came: a piece of Middle Ordovician limestone of the Trenton Group at Trenton Falls, near Barneveld, Oneida County, NY. Collected on a (what turned out to be) a "Guerrilla Overnight Camp Out" at the Falls (then Niagara-Mohawk Power Corp. property), in late spring 1974. So, at the top is an Middle Ordovician crinoid (echinoderm) with the columnal stalk, and, I think, some of the arms of the crown. Left center, there is a tail or pygidia of a trilobite (primitive arthropod), possibly the genus Flexicalymene. There are also stalked bryozoan fragments here, an encrusting bryozoan, Prasopora (pper right), along with disarticulated crinoid columnals, and a few brachiopods. This rock is a real "fossil hash."
