RJB Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 I used to name certain fossils while I was prepping them. I'm going to name this one, "The Nibbler". RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ptychodus04 Posted October 9, 2023 Author Share Posted October 9, 2023 I wrapped up this plate last week but couldn’t get the forum to work on my phone (where all my photos reside) until this morning. Also, the wife set me to rearranging the garage this weekend. That only took 17 hours. Anyway, back to the nibbler. 8 Regards, Kris Global Paleo Services, LLC https://globalpaleoservices.com http://instagram.com/globalpaleoservices http://instagram.com/kris.howe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like a natural and random association of different fish. None of them are in the same layer either. The big diplo is deepest, Cockerelites is in the middle, and the Nibbler is on top. 4 Regards, Kris Global Paleo Services, LLC https://globalpaleoservices.com http://instagram.com/globalpaleoservices http://instagram.com/kris.howe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tidgy's Dad Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 I love this piece too. Rather disappointed that The Nibbler isn't actually nibbling the bigger fish, though. 1 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
