Good looking Echinoderms and Pectylid. If you get a chance and like fossil hunting you should try Bull Creek just south of 45th St. The dark blue grey shale exposed is loaded with all kinds of cool stuff. I pulled out the lower part of a crab claw in excellent state of preservation and a few fish bones but there are millions of rams horn oysters. the compleet mosasaur at the Texas Memorial museum was found close to here. Above the shale in the lower soil/tan clay mixed with stream deposited rock, I also found a fossil mammal tooth (horse?). The greyshale is supposed to be from an extinct volcano that covered up shallow sea bed.

Nice batch of bonus finds there. Texas artifacts and fossils are great finds each in their own right. Those are some great looking intact fossil finds.
