First spread specimen I've done! How'd I do? Xylotrupes gideon. I know the wings could've went higher but I was nervous and kinda rushing it
Months long dry spell finally broken!! SW Surry County, NC
do NOT be fooled by his size and dapperness...he will give you an ouchie if you touch him
Bottles like these are sparse around the woods by my house, but I finally found (parts of) one! "Chattanooga" and "stel..."
Still can't find another complete one, let alone multiple in the same place. I had to go deeper in the woods than I usually go to find this one, farther than I've ever found bottles from this era, so hopefully I can find the spot these are all coming from
This is a new one for me.. Random find on the ground in the woods - Presto supreme Mason
Picked up these two beauties from Goodwill a few days ago! Any help confirming the age of them?
Google lens says the goblet was made by Indiana Tumbler and Goblet Co. and dates back to the 1890s to 1903, and the design is hearts of loch leven. The other piece is supposedly by Westmoreland Glass Company and dates back to the 1910s to the 1920s, and the pattern is Thumbelina. It was also reproduced sometime after the 1950s to 1980s. Are these ages correct, and are they both originals?
New Torynorrhina flammea specimens came in! Rehydrating them for pinning
Made a little display case for my Hollardops trilobite. Thoughts?
My first eurypterid fossil! Eurypterus lacustris head from the Silurian of New York
Got some new trilobites! Ordered a plate with two Ampyxina bellatula and the seller was kind enough to include two Aphelaspis brachyphasis as well!
Smallest longhorn beetle I've ever seen!! (And yes, he squeaks)

What is this? From a local freshwater creek with a small pool. Looks like a worm encased in sediment with only its head poking out? Maybe less than half a cm long
Mid morning Prionus
Thought he was a roach at first! I was scared he was gonna bite me (he actually nipped my right pointer finger a little bit) so that's why I'm holding him so awkwardly.
