We went to the beach today, trying to capture the last of the warm sunny days. This time we went to Calvert Cliffs beach, in search of fossils.
To get to the water, you have to do a 1.8 mile hike through some really beautiful wetlands.
I need to find out what kind of snake this was- the picture doesn't do it justice. It was a lovely red!
We found several fossils, one of which we *think* is some sort of bone.Gryphon suggested taking it up to Natural History and asking them, which is a great idea. I hope it isn't just a bumpy rock!
We also found several shark's teeth, and another home schooled family with a girl Gryphon's age. The girls had a blast making things out of the clay found on the beach (the reason for the great fossils!) After a day at the beach and almost 4 miles of hiking, we were all tired! Love the beach.
