This program will be held at the Reading Public Museum "Recent Discoveries of Fossils, Minerals and Other Natural Wonders in Southeastern Pennsylvania". Presented by local freelance paleontologist and avid naturalist Michael Szajna. Mike will report on his most recent research and collaborations in the study of Late Triassic fossils. Along the way he has documented a few new mineral sites and photographed many natural wonders including mushrooms, slime molds, lichens and a special favorite, caterpillars. He will bring a slab of shale from SE PA with dinosaur footprints. If you or your children have never touched a 200 million year old fossil, this is your opportunity. Joint meeting with the Berks Mineralogical Society at their meeting location and day of the week. Enter at the back of the Museum on South Parkside Drive. All welcome. Free. | ||||||||||
