Trips from the end of January

It's been quite a while since my last post.  The trips have been few and far between the past month or so mostly because of all the snow.  This post is a combination of two trips to two beaches.  The first trip I went to a location on the choptank formation.  There I did ok..... finding the larger worn mako and the white hemi.  The second trip was to a calvert formation beach.  There I was finding the normal smaller teeth, when on my way back to my car,  I saw a bit of enamel.  I pulled out a small but decent meg with a pretty bourlette.  This winter has been pretty rough on tooth collecting here on the bay, so hopefully spring will be better.

Nice teeth Johnny. That looks like a chub with the cusps. Also, is that a posterior chub above the large hemi? I love that white hemi. It was good seeing out and about... Content Quality : 10 of 10

That tooth above the hemi almost looks like a crow shark tooth! (that is, if it's not a posterior meg, can't see from the pic clearly) Don't laugh, I've found two nice S. kaupi teeth along the cliffs where you wouldn't expect them. ;) Content Quality : 10 of 10

Nice finds Johnny. That is a nice tiny posterior Meg/Chub that FB was referring to. Govinn just found a black and work crow shark tooth down there last week. I found a cretalamna as well. I feel your pain about the collecting conditions, but it's slowly getting better. Content Quality : 10 of 10
