I was going through some fossil photos this morning and realaized that some of you fossil folks may like to see two different photos of the same type of fish, one being a baby and the other an adult. This fish is known as Priscacara, found in Wyoming from the Green River Formation and are eocene in age. The little one measures just under 1-1/2 cm\'s and the bigger one measures in at a whopping 23 cm\'s! Both of these fish were found and prepped by myself. enjoy

Hey Caveman, thanks for the compliment. To answer your question, I do have a purty darn good collection, but right now almost everything I have is in boxes. I do have some wonderful unprepped fish still to prep from a trip last summer with some being a bit on the rare side that my youngest son found. I will show photos of those later on this winter when I have time.
