Museum Victoria and Monash University have conducted “Dinosaur Dreaming” digs since 1995. Originally at the Flat Rocks site outside Inverloch, Victoria, it has evolved to include localities along the Bass and Otway Coasts. Since 2008 this blog has shared images and stories of crew taking part in excavations, fossil bones recovered, and fossilly things we get up to between digs. The most recent dig took place at Twin Reefs for 3 weeks in February 2025.
This looks like a turtle shell. But when we looked at it, both sides looked like the impression of the bone and neither side actually had any bone material. This is most likely an example of what we call a pseudofossil, formed by some as yet unknown natural process. We will think more about it after the dig.
