That is a sweet little find. It looks like it could be a Loriolia sp. Did you see the smaller one just to the lower left?







...had you looking, didnt I? It has amazed me how many times I've missed something because I had tunnel vision on my "find". I once stood on a 2.5" Pedernales point as my Dad and I discussed picking up a huge quartzite cobble. He found the point when he went back to get the cobble.

I must say ya did...I didn't read the rest.....
We haven't been getting the rain..Most of the fossils wash out.

Neogeo,

You are made of tough stuff. I haven't been out for much lately, and then for the shortest duration possible. Can't wait for cooler temps and some rain.
Nice finds and well deserved.

The bullet is a .22 long rifle rimfire. Looks to be a federal hollow point with a lead bullet. It's very common and is very popular today, though it's been around for quite some time. That particular shell looks like it's been there for quite some time.
