Well Preserved Brachiopod Fossil



















We all walked up the hill from Grams and Gramps' house and looked around at the rocks in the field there. LD found an amazingly well preserved, complete brachiopod fossil! It's about two inches across. From what I can tell, this fossil and the others we found are well over 300 million years old.  I find that simply astounding.
