ANOTHER URBAN STREET FOSSIL

Like my fish, these fossil fragments I found deposited on pavement, in this case the concrete stoop of a friend's apartment in Midtown Tulsa, next to a pot of ivy. When I inquired of her where these GREAT HONKING PIECES OF AMMONITE came from, my friend said something vague about a neighbor who was going to throw them away, and that she asked for a couple of pieces (THERE WERE MORE?), just the thing to decorate her porch. I was sorely, sorely tempted to come back in the dead of night and steal them; but, she is a friend, so I settled for coming back in the dead of night and photographing them. People ask me where I find fossils in Tulsa; I find them everywhere.
