Fossil Collecting Runswick Bay to Port Mulgrave

First time out for a while.
We head up to North Yorkshire , looking for Jurassic Treasure.
Sorry about the "fuzzy" centre to the picture.
I will be getting a new camera soon

Great vid. Thanks for all the useful info on where to get down/across during high tide. I’ll be doing the same hunt in the near future

[@fishing631]

Another good hunt john

[@Doxymeister]

It'll be interesting to hear what that reptile bone turns out to be, if you're able to identify what it is. Overall, it's nice to come along with you guys on the beach! It's over 90 degrees F here now, and high humidity, so becoming unpleasantly hot to go out. Love watching folks fossil hunting, especially on the beach! Thank you!

[@fossiladventures2926]

Many thanks, it was a humid day but not too hot. Unfortunalty on closer inspection the bone is fish bone most likely from Gyrosteus sp, a large Sturgeon like fish

I think you can get some sort of polish to polish light scratches out

[@peterbonapace7124]

Great stuff as usual, lads! Pity for the scratched lens, though...

[@fossiladventures2926]

New Camera on the way :)

Looks like a pretty hard-going hunt - debating doing that route at the end of July, but think you've put me off! Thanks for taking us along and shame about the plesi skull!

[@fossiladventures2926]

If you wait until the tide goes out more most of the beginning part is just flat shale, with just one section of boulders to scramble over. We were a bit daft climbing over the sea defence stuff though. Yeah "skull" was a shame. Someone found a partial Icky one that day at Saltwick !

[@johnsalt19]

I bet there's loads under the solid stuff yr walkin on

[@geraldinesera8915]

Im new to your vudeos, but a couple of things Ud luke to mention.. 1. Havent heard such a strong hackney accident since old English movies... 2. It is sad that you picked up the ammonite and broke it open unsuccessfully... later found another another one and tossed it away.

[@fossiladventures2926]

Hi Geraldine thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. I am from Yorkshire and proud of my accent and roots, hopefully I am not too hard to understand haha :) If there is no signs of an ammonite wearing out of a nodule the only way to tell is to hit it, most do not contain anything. Unfortunalty as with that one they do not always break cleanly. If it was a rare species I would have taken it home , glued it back together and prepared it but this is not always practical. In part two you will see some nodules that I take home without hitting them. I only take a few specimens and leave other for other collectors to find. Especially new or younger collectors. Regards John

@6:32, what are those round and slightly oblong objects weathering out of that flat stone?

[@fossiladventures2926]

Hi those are nodules being eroded out of the shale bed. Some of these will contain ammonites, most do not. It is best to leave them insitu until mother nature has done her work
