A Trilobite . . . . . . .

. . . . . . I think. In any event, this shot features one of the many displays in the paleontology wing of Houston's Museum of Natural Science.

Very nice Jer. As I recall from a geology course I took many years ago, these guys used to swim about in the ancient Cambrian seas

Speaking of swimming I hope you are keeping your head above water in Texas.

Beautiful shot of the Trilobite. It seems suspended in air on it's base.

Hope for the best regarding the devastating storm that your area has weathered.

Thanks, Tom. We're still above water . At least the sun is out today and I'll be hopping on my bike shortly.

Thank you, Heinrich. I love museums - there are several in Houston that should visit more often than I do.
