    Looks like the seeds from a weed that stuck all over my jacket when I was in the woods the other day.

    Heh, from a tadpole tree? I really hope you're not talking about "frog seed," like in the frog squirted it at you sense... Ewww!

    Yeah it's definitely a baby frog in the stone, not a seed. Those are very similarly shaped though! The fossilized spinal column is pretty clearly visible. Poor little froggy.

    Do you mean my stone? No idea, it most likely came from glacial till. I found a fair quantity of the stones near a local glacial lake (formed by glacier ages ago) partially buried and dug them up - best guess on the stone is a variety of quartzite.

    they look like capacitors. Do they shock you? Put both leads of one on your tongue and see!!

    (just kidding, sometimes they're stuck to my pants when I make the half mile walk through the woods from the public transit bus stop here - except I never see which plant they come off of)

    I think you might be able to sell them to someone as "dried mini snails".
