Constellaria Bryozoan Kentucky

This bryozoan fossil has to be a favorite to find because of its star like patterns.  It is called Constellaria and is found in the Lexington Limestone of Franklin County, Kentucky.  Ordovician Period was the time in which this creature lived.  This piece is about 5 cm long and is the largest I have found so far.
