Good Day on the River

Conditions down at the Potomac are starting to improve.  A lot of the sand has washed out, exposing more gravel than usual.  Unfortunately, the same wind-driven waves that cleared the sand out pushed a lot of aquatic grass up onto the beach.  So, although the huntable areas have decreased in size, they have increased in productivity.

I had a pretty good day today.  I found lots of small Otodus teeth, the largest measuring 1-1/4 inch, and while most have heavy damage, one of them is in really good condition for a Potomac tooth.  I also found my second-ever Palaeocarcharodon orientalis tooth.  It's on the small side at 5/8ths inches, and is so heavily worn that the serrations can only be easily seen by looking from the tip down, but any pygmy white tooth is a good find.  Plus, I got the usual assortment of Sand Tiger types, including a couple pristine Striatolamias, 3 Croc teeth, and 2 shark verts.
