Laurie, the large-scale features in the photo are most likely not fossils. However, if you make thin sections of the limestone (the gray part) and examine them microscopically, you will find that many of the microscopically visible fragments are skeletal pieces--we'd often speak of "trilobite hash" ;)
I've been associating with you people too long -- now I at least know what a trilobite is! You've now got me looking for interest rock formations just to post for the more geologically-oriented to see.
This is a neat outcrop, though I have to admit I wasn't terribly sure what I was looking at. I see it now that he's explained it. Most of the best outcrops are due to the fine efforts of departments of transportation.
I think of all the known creatures from the fossil record, including those that could have eaten me, I'm most glad to have missed the trilobites. Those things were creepy.
