On my way back to Queensland from Western Australia I set up camp at a place called Moodini Bluff,1080 kilometers from Perth and 48kms from the great Australian Bight and nearly 100 meters (300ft) above sea level.
While sitting around a camp fire site ( the fire was not lit because the temp was 40+degs c) I noticed a rock that had been cracked by the heat of the camp fire, I got a hammer and with a slight tap split it open, what an amazing find, it was full of fossilized sea shells
On examining other rocks found nearly all contained loads of shells.
The rocks are made of a very soft sandstone like material which is quite crumbely
On walking around the area there was literally hundreds of shells and bits of shells just lying on the ground some perfectly formed but bleached white by the sun
The fossils must be thousands to millions of years old and yet they are just lying there for anyone to see
What an amazing place this great country of ours is
Nullarbor plain fossils
Yes, hard to fathom seas flowing where now desert resides 
Love fossils and the history associated with them. 
it was very hot, I would say fifty people stayed at least 12 hours there over the three days, and no one would have even thought to look to see what was around
