Cathy Young replied to the topic Favorite Memories of Last Year's PaleoBlitz in the forum PaleoBlitz Forum 7 years ago
7 years ago7 years agoEverything was great. The curation part of PaleoBlitz has gotten me to start seriously curating my collection – including taking pictures of at least 1 of each species. The behind-the-scenes tour of Collections at the Museum was fabulous. I have been behind the scenes in Vertebrate Paleo at The Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia ma…[Read more]

Cathy Young posted a new activity comment 7 years, 1 month ago
7 years, 1 month ago7 years, 1 month agoHi @llundgren . Yes, Phoebus Landing is a fossil site along the Cape Fear River near Elizabethtown, NC. You can only get there by boat. Although the formation that the fossils are from are the Black Creek (Donoho) formation, it’s a lag deposit. You won’t find a complete dinosaur, deinosuchus or anything else – but we do find bones and teeth.…[Read more]

Cathy Young posted an update 7 years, 1 month ago
7 years, 1 month ago7 years, 1 month agoActually, I finally have my Phoebus collection cleaned, separated in boxes, identified, numbered, and put into my computer. All this is thanks to the help of myFOSSIL’s PaleoBlitz last year. We learned the proper way to curate our collections there. I wanted the next step to be putting my collection on myFOSSIL. When that’s finished, I’ll star…[Read more]

Awesome, @cathy-young! I’m so glad to hear that the PaleoBlitz was useful to you. (Did you see this, @vperez and @rleder?) Cathy, be sure to check out Ronny’s digitization video tutorial (under the Resources->Videos & Tutorials tab); it could help you take the best photos of your specimens.

Very nice, @cathy-young. I’m interested to see the representation of species in the fossils you recently posted. In your comment above, you say it’s your Phoebus collection. These are all river-collected? I see a lot of them say “collected in a lag deposit” when I click on them in the fossil gallery.

hi @cathy-young – I am not sure Theropoda should be in the ordinal assignment entry field, what reasoning did you have for putting it there? Talk to you soon, Jen

Hi Jennifer,
Sorry I haven’t replied to any of your inquiries. I’ve been extremely busy with my fossil trip business (Mid-Atlantic Fossil and Nature Adventures, plus I’m President of the Delaware Valley Paleontological Society. This IS a dromeosaurid tooth. The croc teeth ARE deinosuchus, the hadrosaur teeth ARE hadrosaur teeth. I guess…[Read more]

No worries, Cathy. I am working to curate specimens so part of my job is to go through and confirm the information you had entered into the database. I was not questioning your knowledge or data but rather working to validate it through my own research. Let me know when your schedule slows down and I am happy to discuss further. Best wishes, Jen
-
Thanks Jennifer. Thank you for doing this. I’ll admit, when I first saw these, I thought I was being beaten up by some college kid – but then realized you’re probably working with The Fossil Project. I really do want to have my collection curated correctly. And of course have them correct on the My Fossil site. Sorry I don’t have time to deal…[Read more]

Of course, it’s no problem at all! I can see how it might be a bit alarming!!! The project funding is ending soon and I’m moving on to a new position – so I’m toggling between working through people’s collections and the big queue.
Take your time and feel free to message me through myfossil if you have any questions or when you have a bit more…[Read more]
