And finally ... This. Now I'm posting to get a negative result, but also you never know... See I live quite close to Ardley in the UK. Where they found the big dino footprints. And I've got this: Is possible there's a footprint there? It looked odd the moment i got it out the ground. Same context as the rest of the pics. #fossil #paleontology

Fingers for scale. A bit of fossil sea bed?Top view of interesting rockAnother view of a bit of fossilised seabed?

Schon gehört? Rund um den schönen #Ammersee soll nach #Gas
gebohrt werden.

Du denkst dir jetzt vielleicht: Hä, #Erdgas? Das ist doch sowas
von sinnlos, noch auf #fossil(e) Energien zu setzen. Die #Klimakrise
verschlimmert sich immer weiter und Gas befeuert sie noch mehr.

This week for #Fossilfriday we have another #Guess that #Lego #Fossil.

This one I would rate as easy. Its a well known predator from the Pleistocene.

Reminder: hide your answer behind a content warning. This will allow others to guess without a hint. I will post the answer tomorrow (and to anyone who guesses correctly).

This was designed by iceagemuseum.

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...

...and the last post from 2022. Here's a study of Orthacanthus, for a project I cannot talk about yet. Orthacanthus, is a freshwater elasmobranch (shark) from the Carboniferous and Permian Periods.

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...

Here's a study of Kingnites, commissioned in 2022 for a project I cannot talk about yet. Kingnites, is an exceptionally large (1m long) Silurian polychaete annelid.

You are preaching to the choir - it's actually kinda difficult to get a well-designed case *without* a window - but it makes us old farts fossils in the gamer kids' eyes.

Same with internal components encrusted with programmable LEDs...

Is this a fossil shell, or just an interesting rock formation thing? Eldest just dug it up in the garden. #fossil #geology

Fossile Werbung wurde in #DenHaag im Januar 2025 verboten.
Das wollten die niederländische #TUI und #ANVR (Verband der Reisebüros) per einstweiliger Verfügung stoppen und zogen vor Gericht.
Heute kam das Urteil: Das Werbeverbot bleibt bestehen.
Ein schöner Erfolg!

#USA alene om å motarbeide #fornybar #energi.
Selvforsyning av energi er viktig om leveranser av brensel til kjernekraft stopper eller olje og gass infrastruktur blir angrepet, eller leveranser stopper. Olje og gassprisene svinger også og gjør det mindre forutsigbart å investere. Vi må fase ut #fossil energi for å stoppe #klimaendringer. Så resten av verden får fortsette arbeidet, så får Trump styre som han vil.

Fossilized Crinoid stems and segments. Relatives of Starfish and Sea Urchins, this extinct species of Crinoid once covered the ocean floor in this area. We can find its fossilized remains scattered throughout the rocks in the Burren and Cliffs of Moher UNESCO Geopark.
