    I explore a Miocene coastal deposit and find a surprising number of fossil crabs even though I wasn't in an area known for them!
    I prep the smaller crab I find, what a tricky one it turned out to be, very sticky and hollow in sections.
    The bird skull wasn't in the wrap up as it had a large spider living in it so it has been banished to the garden.
    Keep those comments coming!

    I am in NZ too. I looked for fossils a number of times at Birdlings Flat, South of Banks Peninsula, but can see from your video, that I had no idea of their appearance. Thinking back, fifty years ago, as a teenager, I was there and had been sitting on a rock for some time facing the sea, when I became aware of a large Yellow Eyed Penguin, just two rocks away. It would have weighed similar to a small dog. It must have approached from behind. The bird was calm and unconcerned about me. I shifted onto the rock between us, then slowly reached out to see if I could touch it. Once within eight inches or so, it took a sideways swipe at my hand with its beak and hopped onto the next rock. I’ll never forget.

      I've never seen a Yellow Eyed penguin in the wild, would love to see one! I mainly find the little blue penguins, cute things! I've been to Birdlings often. Great place for agates and petrified wood 😄

    I love the way you keep in contact with the museum. You may discover a new species to the area or a new species all together!

Great hunt as always!

    Superb nautiloid. the fossil nautiloids where I live are rare and for some reason there’s often a little pie piece missing in a unusual place. Although one I found has a couple of bite marks from a shark on it so maybe the reason the little section is missing is because the shark bit it of😂

      @vancouverislandhistoricall8972 4 года назад

      Mamlambo yes there is actually evidence that the remaining part of the shell that hadn’t been broken up likely slipped out of the Cretaceous sand tiger shark or goblin shark’s mouth and sank to the bottom of the ocean floor. Just a educated guess.

      It could well be a vertebrae, it had that look 😄 I hope you do find a crab over there in the UK. I wonder if they are found there on the Jurassic coast?

      Oh yeah I dont even live on the right side of UK. But if I know anything. It's just we haven't found the rare fossils that exist under our feet yet on the east coast 😁. I check the beach as. Even if it isn't known for fossils I have a 5% chance 😂😂

    I know this video is now 2yrs old, but you might consider running that nautiloid thru a rock saw, to remove the damaged portion and reveal the interior structure. Just a thought

    What kind of consolidation liquid are you using? Just CA glue? Or is it something else? How do you know what kind to use? That would be something I would love to hear you talk about in a prep portion of a video some time!

    • @MamlamboFossils
      @MamlamboFossils  4 года назад +1

      Hi Brian, I use CA glue for sticking larger pieces together and B72 paraloid for consolidating 😄 I will have to do a prep video with voice-over sometime. Thanks for watching!

    What are the rocks on this beach, outside of the concretions?
    They look mostly like light-coloured granites to me.
    Beauty nautiloid cephalopod.
    Have you considered flagging your finds so you don't have to haul them so far? New Zealanders seem like good people. I doubt any real rockhound would rip off your rocks. Just a thought.

    • @MamlamboFossils
      @MamlamboFossils  4 года назад

      I often put some of my finds aside and they are always there when I go back for them. I will still have to go fetch it as there is no real way to get to most of the spots other than hiking there 😄
