New to Fossils, Eager to Learn-Please Help ID My First Few

[madipaigefog]

These are three fossil bones I found in a creek bed near the southern border of Tennessee.  One resembles a vertebrae,  one is clearly bone shaped, the third is more questionable and lighter in weight. I've scoured the internet and found only that the vertebrae one is most likely from an extinct whale species. The other two I cannot get a clear ID. Any information or knowledge shared would be so valuable to me. Thank you!

Welcome to the forum!  Sorry, but I'm not seeing bones or a vertebra here.  Also, I don't think you would find those sorts of fossils in Tennessee, as the geology is much too old.  Here is a site about fossils in TN:

I agree, although the sediments on the western edge are younger. These are suggestively shaped weathered stones. By the way, the singular of vertebrae is vertebra.

Welcome.

I am not familiar with the geology of the region, but I wonder if these could be burrow infills?

Best regards,
