Spring fossil finding

As you will know from the previous blog, we are currently in the year of the dragon. In China fossils are known as ‘dragon bones.’ We are approaching a neap tide, following a new moon  between the 18th and 20th March which brings with it low tides and therefore is the best time to go fossil hunting. Take a trip to Port Mulgrove near Robin Hood’s bay to find the most fabulous ammonites and if you are really lucky, not dragon bones but dinosaur bones! Take a look at https://theyorkshirefossilhunter.com/ to investigate this pastime further. In our studio, we have been making a simple gather all tray for keeping finds and treasures; ideal for your next fossilling adventure.
