    The attached photos show a specimen I picked up in a rock shop in North Carolina many years ago.  They said it was from Pennsylvania or Ohio if I remember correctly (I could be mistaken).  Anybody have any thoughts on what it might be?  Sorry for the glare in the phone photos.  I can take more with an SLR if need be.  Than…[Read more]

    Were the ants invited guests or did they party crash?

    Who is this bird you speak of? Wren from Carolina or Virginia Rail? One must be careful, Red is knot the one you should listen to. When Brandt and that loon Jay get together there are some tall tails. Cliff’s stories are hard to swallow. Was Phoebe telling the truth or just parroting Myna? Townsend will warble more than he knows, like h…[Read more]

    The labels look like they came from a fossil company that used to sell mail order in the late 1960’s. I can’t remember the name of the company, but they did have pretty good data on their specimens. I want to say they we out of Texas, but I could be mistaken.

    Fossil collecting in the American West in the late 19th and early 20th century. What Sternberg was able to accomplish was amazing. #fossil #method

    Fossils of Gumby? I’m not dating the specimens, but I might be dating myself.

    Mike, could you give a bit of detail on what we are looking at in this photo? How is a paleomag sample collected and prepared? Just the very basics would be great. Thanks.

      Of course! Montbrook paleomagnetism sediment samples were collected throughout the section to compare results from the top and bottom. All sample orientations were recorded in the field as well as on the sample themselves (that’s the black arrow you see on the pictured sediment). Since we all know how crumbly the sand-dominated Montbrook…[Read more]
