Happy everyone. For your viewing pleasure here is, what I think is, a Proceratopyge canadensis, a trilobite I found from the McKay group Cambrian deposits. That means this little critter was likely alive around 490 million years ago

A photo of a triangular slab of rock on a wooden desk. A beam of sunlight picks out the features of a trilobite in the stone. It has long back facing head spines on its cheeks, and tiny tail spurs

Roy -- the dull one

@fossilfriend
He looks to be in very good condition. Are you sure he's not just sleeping?
