The Fossils of Tulsa County Join your host, urban hunter-gatherer and amateur paleontologist Dr. Omed, fossicking for fossils in and around Tulsa, Oklahoma.
I did a last drive by at the Yale St construction site not too long ago, mainly to gather material from the labyrinth I'm building in my backyard. Fossils aside the striped stone there is beautiful in and of itself. I found the above bit of 300 million year old bark among the debris ground under the treads of the killdozers and shovelsauruses the contracters use to make war on the unruly rolling hills round about Tulsa . The Hwy. 75 site has been almost completely landscaped and turfed over, alas. Slim pickin's for scavenger fossickers like me.
