Fowells... Definately a pac man lol....nature can lay things out in some bizzare ways, and Ive never been able to beat this.... These are dactiloceras Gracile ammonites, just how they landed on the sea bed 180 million years ago... all i did was prep them out and look in amazement at the arrangement.... my friend super imposed the hat on.... a little early but its nearly christmas.... (I will post it on the Pyrite thread as well) incase the ammonite guys miss it....

Why is this fossil smiling?

Because he is "stoned".

Why is this fossil smiling?

Because he got laid in some sediment.

Thanks, Terry.

Since no one ever ID'd my fossil; it's a coiled Nautilid of the Liroceras type. The "smile" is a collapsed chamber that didn't fill and mineralize with the rest of the shell.

To be honest, Terry, you were about the only one who'd have got that. It really, really looks like a womble, even more so in person.

Here I was thinkin' one of the spies in Mad Magazine's "Spy vs. Spy"...

I was thinking Woody Woodpecker, but the Spy vs. Spy character is perfect, although it dates us...
