More rain and more toothin

Some more showers drenched the lowcountry yet again and I decided another day of fossil hunting was in order. I was thinkiing my chances of finding some nice teeth were good so I arrived at the spot anxious to hunt. I walked slowly making sure I didn't miss anything. Sometimes fossil hunters get in a rush and miss teeth just setting out in the open. I also brought my camera this time. I was finding teeth right away...small ones and pieces then I spotted an Angy. I knew it was nice so I grabbed my camera and took a pic. A "water shot" of the tooth. I then picked it up to see if it was whole. It wasn't only whole it had a great root, nice serrations, and the tip. I took another water shot of another Angy later in the hunt, but this was the best tooth of the trip. I also found out when I got home that this Angy has a nice translucent quality to it. Another successful hunt !
