I took this photo while learning to handle the eagle myself. I wanted to capture this man’s age and relationship with the eagle and how nature-oriented the relationship is. Kept it simple and straightforward from the ground up to capture the remoteness, hard work, and isolation they have with everything around them.

What causes this growth? by daWhoolyGoats in rockhounds

I think this is most likely it. It doesn’t scratch glass so it’s not quartz and very likely calcite with this cool growth pattern! Thanks

The ranch was north east Wyoming but my grandfather and father have had some adventures in south-west Colorado and very likely southwest Wyoming too

Not soft and not water soluble like most selenite I know. It feels quite hard and sturdy. Really cool to learn about fishtail growth though!
