Come and unearth a 180 million year old Jurassic ammonite with me. ⚒️ Happy #FossilFriday This is a lovely Dactylioceras that I found whilst fossil hunting inside a quarry in Holzmaden, southern Germany. You never lose that magical feeling of being the first person to find a piece of deep time. | Dr Dean Lomax - Palaeontologist
