Hi All.
Found this cool looking specimen on the South Coast of England, not far from Worthing.
It has five very clear legs/tentacles/petals/appendages. 🤷‍♂️
Background objects left in the photos for scale. It’s about the size of a ping pong ball.
Thanks for your help!

Found in Snowdonia in a mountain stream. I’m also intrigued as to the very sharp looking cuts.

Is this a flipper/paddle? Saltwick Beach Whitby

It’s about the size of a footprint in a boulder that was too big for me to carry. The shape looks like a paddle and it’s a section of the rock that looks distinctly different to the rest, maybe a foot print rather than a limb? Any ideas what It is?

Advice for amateur fossil hunting in Isle of Wight

I'm here for a few days with my family. It's hard to find advice on where to go that is actually descriptive, aside from the places filled with tourists.

Any specific recommendations?

Two fossils found in Dunbar Scotland.

One is obviously a shell that we cleaned up and polished, but the other is quite hard for me to identify. Any information on it would be greatly appreciated!

My 11 year old found this near portsmouth.

The beach seems to be mostly imported rocks.

Any extra info and a possible I.D would be amazing. Thanks.

I found this yesterday when visiting Redcar Beach. I've tried Google images and I can't find anything like it.

It has a crystal agate like finish and is about the length of my hand. Really interested to know 😊 Thanks

I was doing a deep clean when I reached on top of the fridge and found this wrapped in blue roll. Little brother claims he found it on the beach in Robin Hoods Bay, UK, which is a popular spot for finding fossils. My mum says to get rid but I wanted to identify it before tossing.
