Happy #FossilFriday from these cool crinoid stem fragments! Don't overlook that little one on the right🔍 Unearthed by a participant during Dig with the Experts 2022⚒️
Happy #FossilFriday! Check out this cool plate featuring two complete Eldredgeops rana trilobites, trilo-bits, and other Devonian treasures. Unearthed by board member and longtime friend of Penn Dixie, Joseph "PaleoJoe" Kchodl⚒
Volume up 🔊 Here's a neat #ThrowbackThursday video from last January of two feisty foxes! The vocalization that these foxes are making is known as "gekkering", and is most often heard when a fox encounters a rival🦊
Happy #FossilFriday from this sweet Spinatrypa spinosa, unearthed at Penn Dixie by James Hanna⚒️ On account of their fragile nature, the spines on these brachiopods are often completely absent, so it's always exciting to see a specimen in its spiny glory!
