Summary
[edit]
| Description | This is a typical site where a fossil whale skeleton has emerged from the rock matrix as wind has blasted it into sand. The large chunks are vertabrae, with smaller fragments of ribs and other parts scattered around. The massive dark piece in the middleground center is a mass of fossil mangrove roots. |
