Here’s a Fossil fish we were lucky enough to find! 🌊😍🐟 The majority of these delicate, rare, fossils are reclaimed by the sea so only remnants are found (but even those are still really rare!) 💀🎣 We also found a stunning example of a Yorkshire Ammonite and a Belemnite fossil on the beach huge loose shale slabs 🦑 The surrounding stone is easily broken away to reveal the specimen within 🏝 Thanks for supporting our page! 🐊 #natural #nature #fossil #fossils #ancient #animals #art #ammonite #ammonites #dinosaur #scientist #minerals #paleontology #whitby #geologist #dorset #geology #charmouth #jurassic #yorkshire #beach #coast #sea #water #squid #fyp

Here is a spherical rock that we found embedded within shale on a beach walk! We opened the nodule up with our geology hammer… The surrounding shale is softer than the nodule and is easily broken away. Inside the nodule, a beautiful Dactylioceras tenuicostatum ammonite from the Jurassic 😍🦑 These ammonites are around 180 Million Years Old 💀🏝 Thank you for supporting our page! 🐊 #natural #nature #fossil #fossils #ancient #animals #art #ammonite #ammonites #dinosaur #scientist #minerals #paleontology #whitby #geologist #dorset #geology #charmouth #jurassic #yorkshire #beach #coast #sea #water #squid #fyp

We opened this block of Jurassic shale while hunting for fossils on the beach! 🐬 Our aim was to reveal a fossil and save it from the elements 🌧️ We found a limestone rock and opened it 🤯 Take a look and see if anything was inside! 🌅 We revealed a beautiful Jurassic Age Ammonite fossil from millions of years ago! 🏝 Thanks for supporting our page! 🐊 #natural #nature #fossil #fossils #ancient #animals #art #ammonite #ammonites #dinosaur #scientist #minerals #paleontology #whitby #geologist #dorset #geology #charmouth #jurassic #yorkshire #fyp

Here are some golden pyritic rocks that we found and opened up on the beach🏝🌊 The slabs had been part of a huge landslide which had revealed some material perfect for containing Jurassic fossils. Inside, some lovely eleganticeras elegantulum ammonites and even some fossil poo!
