Shelly sediment of the Norwich Crag. A mixture of orangey-yellow sand and white and russet brown debris of fossil bivalve and gastropod shells, etc. Cockle shells are visible in the middle of the picture

Close up (@ 10 times magnification) of a sieved sample (@ 1.4 mm) of white and brown debris of fossil bivalve, gastropod and barnacle shells.

A sieved sample of barnacle debris from the Crag magnified 16 times.

A sieved sample of tiny gastropod shells - perhaps Hydrobia ulvae - from the Crag, magnified 16 times. Perhaps suggesting that mud flats were not far away.

New samples of shelly Norwich Crag sediment from the Waveney valley, Norfolk, UK, perhaps 1.5 m yrs old. A Crag site new to science and rich in fossils #barnacles #bivalves #forams #gastropods. Sadly samples were extracted from below quarry water level so field relationships uncertain. #Pleistocene

Digital fully rendered illustration of a slug. It is white with black markings and a pink belly like a Holstein cow. There is a tiny speech bubble with a red heart coming from it. The background is light green with a darker green grid pattern.

Daily old(ish) piece 200!

Some time ago my good friend @/gonebattygoth on Tumblr said slugs look like tiny cows and I couldn’t stop thinking about it.
