Saturday's bounty

Shockingly, a post not about our recent trip to Japan.

My specialty! These are called "microteeth" by people who are more serious about collecting than me. [Correction, by people who have more time to do this than me.] Lesson for next time: include something for scale. Suffice it to say the largest fragment in the lower right corner doesn't even span a U.S. penny. They're so small, I didn't even try to sort them by type. I'm still happy. It was most fun two hours I spent all week, even with the rain.

Sharks represented: Tiger, bull, lemon, sand, hemipristis, hammerhead. Maybe a couple of mako tips. No cow sharks this time. Also one type I've never seen before but which is ultra cool.
