This vote is harder then I thought it would be this month. I guess I will vote for the specimen I would like for my collection. Good job to all!

Many times I've wondered how much there is to know.

Great specimens! Its' gond to be a tough vote.

A fossil hunter needs sharp eyes and a keen search image, a mental template that subconsciously evaluates everything he sees in his search for telltale clues. -Richard E. Leakey
