The snow finally melted enough for me to get out again, and found several points, a couple
of drills, quite a few scrapers, and other tools, and a knife in a couple of afternoons.




Prairie side notch (late prehistoric)



A little broke point







Another Prairie side notch I think made from quartz




My knife, probably been resharpened




A cute little drill. amazing how small the tip is




An interesting tool. Quite narrow, flat on the bottom, with tip broken




A nice resharpened point







Did they use these as scrapers, awls or gravers, or all three? sharp point




Very steep beveled scraper.




A little triangle




My heartbreaker. This would have been a nice one for this field




Another triangle from quartz







Another prairie side notch out of knife river flint




I held my breath when I pulled this one out, but it was complete



Interesting shaped tool

Man, I love those bird points, you have to have agood eye. nice haul!

Thanks Makoken

I sometimes am down on my knees for abit looking at something else before I see those little ones.

Got to just stop and stare once in awhile.

Joe.

Thanks Joe, We just got 4 inches of snow today, so done again. LOL
I have been meaning to tell you what a nice drill that was you found, if that
was the consensus. Really awesome.

Looks like you had a good day! Very nice! I know what you mean by "holding your breath!" Lol

Here is a little guy I found today. Seemed appropriate to post it here since we're sharing birdies! Also found2 thumb scrapers. Congratulations on your finds! Sandy

Wow nice job! Good to see you got out breaks up your winter for you.

Dang Gary, nice haul with some nice artifacts found! Your on a roll the likes of Tx. Jesse! Way to go!!

Thanks for sharing. Love the pics. Very nice 2 days...

Nice couple of days, can't beat that for this time of year! 5th picture down, gun flint?

Nice, nice, nice. I wished I could see the bird points...I haven't found one yet, but that's not stopping me.

Thanks Hoss. I was starting to get the withdrawls! Now I can relax again for abit.

Gary

Thanks Chris, but I think I've got a ways to go before I catch up to Jesse.
I'll work on it though

This field never gets worked in the fall, so it stays nice and smooth without alot of trash,
so they sometimes stick out. Some of the tinier ones that I've found were harder to spot. I've
got a couple much smaller than the ones I found this weekend.

I thought those were actually big ones.

Thanks. Do you mean that white scraper? I guess I don't know my materials real well,
but I you may be right. I have seen gun flints that resemble it.
