RE: Dinosaur Dreaming 2006 Field Report



>This year a partial hypsilophodont skeleton - consisting of a left pes,
>partial tibia and fibula, and most of the tail - was discovered by Mike

nearby

The new articulated hypsilophodont site is Crayfish Bay, not Eric the
Red. 

>The new >site will be investigated to see if it warrants more
systematic excavation.

We were just there last week, and we hit serious fossil pay dirt
immediately adjacent to where the ornithopod was recovered! Something
for next years report...
