I headed to the Bay this morning (Sunday), hoping against reason for something good to turn up. I was primarily sifting gravel for a few hours, and was finding some nice small teeth, including a large cowshark upper parasymphyseal, a few small but sweet hemis, and a thresher tooth. I started to head back to my car, but I ran into Tony and Bob.
I had never done any digging in the fall piles before, but Tony and Bob showed me the basics. After a few hours, and a few tons of dirt moved with very little to show for it, I was getting a bit discouraged. That all changed when I broke open a block of dirt and saw the tip of a Meg sticking out! It has some feeding damage, but still a good find at 2-7/8ths inches. I also found a beautiful Peccary tooth in the same area - only the second Peccary tooth I'v ever found. I also pulled a decent Mako, measuring 1- 3/8ths.
Thanks again to Tony and Bob for letting me play in the dirt with them! 1 available
