I was completely engrossed, marveling over all the critters, and then you had to be so lucky as to find a fossil. My fossil envy is spirally completely out of control. I’ll go lay down for a while and try to think good thoughts. }:(
I’m back and it looks like it was a great experience. I have a spot all picked out for next year that is on a body of water and should yield more varied critters. I’ll try not to peek ahead of time.

Jennifer- Might it be possible that you got northern duskies and mountain duskies? We have the mountains in extreme NE Ohio and I bet you have them up your way too. They have round tails and chevron patterns on their backs.

I think you had one of the better “flips!”

Ha! No, I’d never heard of IRFD. But nearly every day is for me. Can’t resist looking under things for minibeasts.

I wondered if you knew about the fossils – was that the leaf of Gingko biloba? Or am I on totally the wrong track? Maybe shellfish! Really enjoyed your article here, thank you for such an enjoyable bit of blog.

Please note – I’m looking for writers, like yourself, who might like to occasionally post at my Natureheads blog, with articles like this. Not that I’m looking to get the credit for your writing! Just that I like the idea of the blog growing into a place where people share their passion for the natural world.

On WordPress you can be an ‘author’ on various blogs. You could even ‘copy and paste’ your work to make it easy, and of course each time, you can link back to your blog.

Anyway, take a quick search for the ‘Natureheads blog’ and let me know if you’re interested.

All the best – Jason.

What great finds for you–I just love salamanders. I am putting this event on my calendar and will participate next year. Thanks for sharing.

Wow you found great things! Your salamanders are to die for and fossils even, what a lucky person to have such riches nearby!
