I just happened upon your channel (and also your Facebook page too) lifelong stone/fossil/beach glass collector...sinceI was four years old my favourite place was the play sand pit in the schoolyard...my dad was a coal miner in north east England and would bring me home amethyst and quartz from newly opened glistening caves deep and far out under the North Sea...I wander rivers, beaches, fields around my home just connecting with nature and our past with pottery pieces and bottle stops, clay pipe stems and shards of China that must have been used once by the people who lived in our farm cottage here in the Scottish Borders. It all brings me such joy...and now your videos will too...thank you.x
Next time I am in Scotland/northern England, would love to see your collection and do some beachcombing together!
Wow very very nice I like this fossil
Thank you! Cheers!
I found something like that but it was a different color like a pearl
Great video

Love it!
Thank you! That was very informative. What a good eye you have to find those while beach combing!
Years of practice!

Fantastic to watch! Super, super interesting. Would love to see more of your mystery stuff ID videos please 😊

Ok - those are fun to do.
Those last things are made from little nasty like sea snails or somesuch things and when they die and dry up they make that. I used to see them alot in primo tapia in baja ca.
Thank you so much!

Very informative and interesting! Also the first time I've heard concretions referred to as clay babies. Sweet :)

I loved your explanations. I'm from Portugal and have a Stone/fóssil that i'd like to know more about. I have no idea what it is... I don't even know how to look for inormation... Where can i send some pictures at?
hi there: Happy to try to help IF. if I don’t know, I have others who maybe can. Send pictures of it either at drbeachcomb@gmail or message me on my FB dr. Beachcomb TM page.
please include details - I.e. the country/region where it was found, if these are common to the area, it it is heavy or light, or any detail characteristic that might help with the ID process. thx! and maybe we can meet up sometime in Portugal for a comb!
