Thought some people in this section might be interested in this video. I'm a noob to fossils...I just know they are near my house so I decided to go find and film a few.

You're hiking over marine-originated Mesozoic Era Cretaceous Period sediments, by the way, within which you found a few Inoceramus pelecypod fragments. At the 9:30 mark of the video you encounter some interesting ichnofossils--probably invertebrate tracks and trails. Stray rounded stones observed here and there are eroded igneous rocks unrelated to deposition of the fossiliferous Cretaceous sedimentary material.

Links to all of my paleontology-related sites on the Net (plus my guitar-playing pages)

Thanks Inyo...appreciate that information. Something to spend an evening Googling now.... :occasion14:
