Finally got around to taking a few pictures of some of the fossils? I have found around the lake. Not sure exactly what everything is. Any help identifying these would be greatly appreciated. Clams? Shell and shell conglomerate and imprint. Dino poop? Pet Wood

In the second pic, the small one in the middle appears to be a dermal spine from an ancient stingray. Commonly called a stingray scute. One from my collection

Rock on far right, 2nd photo, looks like a shell part with a sponge hole drilled it it. Sponge holes in a piece of tumbled oyster:

There is a lot of this type stuff along with Pet wood. I'll post one other Clam/oyster that looks like a geode/nodule rock that I just brought home. It's different than most of the clams and things we normally find, older maybe?

I know! In the Co. River Valley it's the worst. Great fossils you got, though. Didn't realize there were any in that area.
