Last week I headed down to the Chesapeake and did a little fossil hunting and beach combing.
Early season, chilly weather fossil hunting gear. Waders and my scooper.
Found some decent fossils and shark teeth. And saw some cool wildlife, including 4 hawks on the drive, a bald eagle, hooded mergansers, and what I think was an otter swimming out in the bay.
Fossil Mako Shark tooth, about 1.5"
Left: fossil verteabrae, probably from a dolphin. Right: Fossil coral, barnacle, and i think an inner ear bone from a dolphin.
Shark teeth from the trip. First row: Snaggletooth Shark. Second row: (large teeth) some nice Mako teeth. Third row: Tiger Shark. Assorted smaller teeth below.
A new custom dog portrait. Two Australian Kelpies, named Kip and Rudi. An enjoyable one to paint, interesting eye colors, and I had fun with the background.
