      I, too! Also, would you be able to identify the reptile, fish and crinoid fossils and perhaps show pictures of how the animals looked when they were alive?

      The crinoid (probably spelt wrong yes 😂) fossil was absolutely incredible!
      Truly mind bending

    Your Dad has an amazing amount of skill and patience.
    Have any of these specimens, like the Crinoids, ended up in museums?
    It's so good to have you back, Doctor:)
    Do you have your own practice yet, or do you work in a clinic or hospital?
    Are you specializing?

    Though your video possibilities are perfect with these drone shots, your video could be more exciting by showing more of the hunt for fossils and cutting the landscape parts shorter. Then putting all of the very interesting preparation to the end. This way of video cutting would catch me more.

    I loved my very brief stay in Yorkshire years ago and wished I could have gone fossil exploring along the coast. The crinoid is absolutely stunning!

    I loved the drone footage because I got to see the geological process very clearly. The waters undercut the cliff face and the weight sheers of a section of that face. The debris field is exposed and makes it simple to identify the choice spots to tap into.
    Please always include the drone footage as a visual guide to see nature working on changing the landscape.

      Thank you for your support 😀. From leaving the house to actually arriving at the hunting grounds it can take anywhere between 30 minutes to 90 minutes. The return journey always takes longer to get back to the car as usually our bags will be heavier and there’s usually a hill/cliff to climb up 😅😀

    Been watching you guys for years, absolutely love your video!. The dedication and the amazing preparation that goes into the fossils, especially doing it as a family. Would love to visit that coast line to find my own one day.
    We have many shale mines in my area, there tends to be quite a few flatish rounded nodules within them which are limestone. I have never found anything of interest inside them and wonder if they are ancient stones from a river bed at that time as often there are coprolites on the surface of one side. I also often find small fish teeth, scales and plant material in the shale around here.
    Keep up the great work!.

    Good video. When you describe the name of the ammonite I usually can’t understand it. Maybe adding a name note on the video would help an ole man as me understand. I’m in USA and found thousands of Crinoids pieces but never a full fossilized unit. Indiana was a sea scape where many fossils and Geodes can be found. Thanks for sharing.
