    It was cool when you flipped the one stone with the large brachiopods to find the living Isopods crawling all over the bottom. They maybe fossils themselves one day.

    Those "weird" crystals are dolomite. You can tell from the rhombohedral shape instead of the dogtooth crystal structure. They also tend to be less transluscent. Jealous of your finds man! We will need to do this one day!

    I was excited to see this video🎉🎉🎉🎉 hello Kyle!!! My name is Mary Paige.. I came to You Tube to learn about the aquarium Hobby when we all were stranded in our homes when the pandemic first started. I ended up finding the best people I've ever met. I battled addiction over 20 years to prescription pain medicines and almost lost my life, I ended up learning to make a few videos and share!! being in nature and our Hobbies are the best therapy!!!! I'm still here and learning to create. You always make me smile and make my day better!! Aquascaping aquariums led me to looking for Hardscape, which led me to rocks, which led me to fossils.... because I'm in Kentucky. I just did a video last week and learning about and finding so many cool fossils and gemstones just from the creek gravel thats excavated to be put down in driveways around here. IM JUST A COOL( well I try to be)GRANDMA😅 thats been enjoying your Channel. Whenever you're on, I make everybody watch with me lol and I saw that you were in Kentucky and couldn't wait to see the video¡ great way to start my day. Maybe if you want a good laugh I did a video the first little bit of it it's just me sharing my day but the second part I show some of the cool fossils I'm finding. What got the video started was people telling me about licking rocks and if your tongue sticks its a fossil LOL I thought they were just trying to get me to lick rocks ( okay and I admit it. I did😂😂) your video really helped me alot. ❤
    I have been sending people your way I'm about to post the link to watch your video in my comments and description!! Thank you and your friends putting this together. If y'all are still anywhere near Russell Springs / Somerset area. KY we have some really really really awesome creeks!
    I hope you and your friends have a blessed and beautiful day❤ Loved the video!!!!

    • @VSFilly

      Dana: that 'Honeysuckle' is Amur Honeysuckle and quickly destroying our resources.
      It was purchased from China.
      It is quickly destroying timber and North American birds. Our states need to be held accountable but basically ignoring the issue. Autum Olive and multiflora rose are other invasives which are destroying natural habitats.
      Here in Ohio they are quickly killing our trees and birds.
      Birds feast on the Honeysuckle Amur berries premigration: then the perish enroute to their destination. The berries are rich in carbs and only sustain birds a short flight. Kinda like Koolaid versus orange juice.
      Don't believe the stories that woodstoves and farming are killing these birds: it is from invasives such as these! In Ohio, they have taken over state parks. Sad!

Once found a mosasaur vertebra and femur (left in place as they were huge!), and know that feeling when you find something so unique and exciting.

    Most of the brachiopods you picked up were of the genus Vinlandostrophia, possibly V. ponderosa. I think you might have also picked up a few Hebertella. There might be some Hiscobeccus in there too. The large flat brachs are most likely Rafinesquina.

      It is true many cultures have flood myths, but outside of the region in which the Abrahamic faiths originated they tend to vary wildly. Some are floods of blood, some of milk, some have people surviving in shells. They all contain different Gods or even none at all.

The flat shield shaped brachs might be Strophomenids called Rafesquina. You have others there by the look of it so maybe Herbetella as well. Great finds. So well preserved. Beautiful calcite infills.

      I can help you out: Ohio here and once researched this...and it was super easy.
      Look up Greenfield Ohio and ocean fauna fossils. Look up Lake Grant Ohio: also famous for fossils (This is south of Greenfield) This type of fossil is found in Brown and Adams cty Ohio. Then, this same type continues in Kentucky.(follow the counties south from Highland cty Ohio) There are ample maps that show how the formation flows from Ohio to Kentucky. Lake Grant area is overflowing in Trilobites! Greenfield is more ocean fauna: we've found whole crystallized sponges.

    I live in Kentucky, I get to do this almost every day.
    Also, those brachiopods you're pulling up every 5 seconds (Vinlandostrophia sp.) Are probably the most common fossils in Kentucky.
    12:00 That brachiopod you just picked up is a Hebertella sp., and a gorgeous one at that.
    19:30 a little rule of thumb for finding fossil corals in Kentucky, if you can hold it with one hand, it's not big. I've found some that are 3 feet long.
    21:02 that looks like a stromatolite to me. Good find! I myself haven't had any luck finding those!
    23:40 thise cephalopods are an orthoconic nautiloid, possibly Treptoceras duseri, related to the more famous cameroceras.

      I have a 10 yr old grandson that is a natural rock hound- fossil finder. Any advice on places to take him around London, Ky? Any help is appreciated. He’d rather do this than play video games so I really wanna nurture this interest for him. Thanks for any info.

    Kyle, it would be really helpful to us non rock hounds, if you could explain in layman’s terms what your finding, and all other details about the items.
    Thanks

    Can’t wait to see you alive into the brachiopod geodes. Oh wait, does your exploring partner live up in those areas you have visited or down here in FL? I need a good fellow female partner like her! If you know anyone in swfl near ft. Meters, gimme a holler! (This is Megan, btw)

    I think that those flowers are Elderflowers ! But I'm not sure since I don't get a good look them or the leaves ! If they are you can make jelly out of them !

    Yes, that's Honeysuckle. They smell amazing, don't they? The bee's love them.

    @WILDKYLE 13:06 looks like a house centipede. It's a common bug but a wicked cool looking one.
