Trils are from the earliest period of living things and went extinct as amphibians and small reptiles just got  started (predecesors of crabs, shrimp, crustacean, insects and such). Have a few dozen insects in amber and soft chalks, too many soft parts to easily fossilize. Do have a decent photo record of the insects in the woods here, especially butterflies since I planted lots of habitat for them. Same for general insects and spiders. Bit leery of spiders since we have several very poisonous native ones. Love looking at spider webs early morning when they sparkle with dew. Friend in high school always did science fair projects on wolf spiders, a type that doesn't build webs: besides local ones, he had a bunch of tarantulas in terrariums. Lol, Steve Ash, that was his name, one of three main competitors at local science fair. Fortunately he was in biology category and I was in geology so we pretty much always advance to regional, then state competition, also one of four of us (2 guys, 2 girls on the science quiz team, always had the hots both for Sally Eyman, she was chemistry and Deedra McDougal who was physics/astronomy). Too bad back then science honor students didn't fool around - I would have taken either quite seriously). Lol, we 4 took every single level of every science class from 13 on, from remedial to Advanced Placement College level. Anyway got the trilobites started in wee hours, will take rest of week to finish  then will start herbs.

Have been working on laying out a discussion of my own speciality in marine paleobiology; although I collect anything, my heart has always been with the trilobite, an extinct class of Arthropods. Part of it is the challenge of finding a relatively intact specimen instead of their molted carapace parts; also, they were the early apex predators. Anyway, will start posting photos and discussion on them during tonight. Rachel (UK) here on AAG raises "leafy stick bugs" wrote a splendid discussion on them, so I'm retaliating with my own "bugs". Need to finish section on ecology & reproduction then can start uploading.

The shale itself often has nice specimens like:

or

Always nice to find stuff but half the fun is getting nice and dirty with a bit of coal dust smeared over clothes and skin!

Just 3 real goodies from the trip although lots of fragments. Just happened to throw pics in photos yesterday. Between layers of coal a lot of time is a thin layer of shale that has an iron based concretion (where sediment forms around a foreign object): if you crack it open you often get something like:

Spring and early summer so far has been very rainy and cold so have only been out once, last month 17th. Cabin is about 100 miles from where I grew up and strata here are quite different- grew up in midst of mostly shallow sea/coral reef rocks of (nice Brit words: Ordovician/Silurian/Devonian) age; my woods, cabin is on the fringe of the coal mining area, so here its your Upper Carboniferous which is our Mississipian Period, so I've been working mostly in prehistoric swamp material, mostly plants.

Ya, Florida & tropical islands over here are amazingly rich in life, hope to get back down in a year or so and just spend time on1 island, either Jamaica or Bahamas to see how the coral reefs are doing. Annea was in shock the entire trip since she was landlocked growing up in Stuttgart, Germany. Soon as their daughter is born in 2 months, they plan on starting weekend visits to coast over there.
  I normally spend a day every week collecting ad every few months a weekend camping at one of the better locales so I can hit it dawn to dusk,

Anyway, I guess I love the ocean since 3/4 of my life has been landlocked in northern forests and the plants and critters are completely different.

Latest discussion in nature group is http://www.allaboutgod.net/forum/topics/creatures-from-other-places-florida-and-the-caribbean?groupUrl=the-beauty-of-nature-created-by-god&groupId=1383940%3AGroup%3A1252134&id=1383940%3ATopic%3A1456551&page=1#comments

where I took my FWB of 2 years on a month trip May 2012 to Florida and the Caribbean to show her my old haunts of 15 years before I moved back to Ohio to take care of paents until their passing. She was studying (photography) here from Germany and had only seen the ocean once when little. She like it so much, when she married in November she went back for her honeymoon.
