While I was out last Sun I had the chance to look over an area that has recently been exposed. New road cuts with no rain holds little chance of finding much.
Still I managed a few specimens.

1. Small clams from the Woodbine formation (Dentonia leveretti)

2.&3. Small snails from the Arcadia park member of the Eagleford formation
Gyrodes top center, Anchura in matrix and free stone, and one small turritella.

4. Matrix containing a small Placenticeras, a small piece of carbonized wood and other assorted ammonites such as Metoicoceras (Ammonite) Britton member.  
Note: Heavy machinery was not kind to this specimen. Shattered most of the stone and scattered it out along the hill side.

5.&6. Housing chamber of a Prionotropis (Ammonite) Arcadia Park member.
I would like to find a large one of these with this preservation (Pearlesant shell intact)

I will post more as they are available (Found)
 I never go looking, I GO FINDING!

Seldom,
If you are ever in Dallas get in touch with me before you leave home. Great
The places I go have to be easily accessable or I can't go. Cry
My knees just can't take the trek too far. Wise

My knees are shot also they are getting better after the second operation so maybe soon. Barefoot girl has been after me to come hunt the river with her and her gang for several years so may head that way this fall. I know you have heard of McFadden beach about 7 of use are planing a fall hunt there if your interested let me know.
