Landed back in Bismarck after #bostonmarathon25 and meeting some very important old dead people, wrangling witches at a gas station and romping around New Hampshire. Love the humble chaos of the northeast. Back into fossil action tomorrow (or tonight?)

New content! I recommend viewing at 1440p to get the crisp detail of the grains and optimal frame rate. This specimen was collected by permit on public lands administered by the United States Bureau of Land Management from Judithian strata near Havre, MT. Found by Jason French, July 2024.

The second and most complete example of the alligatorid Albertachampsa sp. From the Judith River (Dinosaur Park) Fm., Havre, MT. I used advanced air abrasive and manual micropreparation techniques yielding a specimen that appears barely post mortem, despite millions of years of deep earth tenure

Watch me under the microscope and beyond as I prepare shale fossils (fish, stingrays, sharks, birds, etc). But mostly fish! Quick stream to lighten the mood. A bit noisier as my lab is more staffed tonight.
