☀️happy weekend Maddie ☀️

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Mary Ann 👋🏻🏖️ Have a terrific weekend as well 😄 Thanks for watching 🥰

[@robertabessey7990]

Hi, Maddie What pretty urchins you found. I'm loving the Oyster shells you found. Love the Carditas as well. Huge brown paper bubble, they seem so fragile. I have to mention that sweet little dainty pin shell. My favorite is the scallop that got away. 😂 Thanks again Maddie for working so hard to bring us another awesome beach walk and treasure hunting video. We all appreciate you and look forward to the next one.

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G’day Roberta 👋🏻💖 This beach is the best for urchins!! Or I should say; no other beach has such a steady and plentiful supply of them within many hours of driving distance!! This beach also seems to have a bountiful amount of those pretty cardita shells too🤔 Ahhh the oyster shells, do you mean those big Hammer Oysters! They are such a bizarre and cool kind of shell 🤩 I wonder why they evolved to be like that? Aw Roberta, I’m sorry the favourite this time was the one that got away 😅 I really did look around to try to find it again, but that bucket just covered so much distance before I caught up with it 😮 that scallop could have been anywhere, and I never saw it again 😂 crazy, there are just so many shells on that beach! Thank you so much for your kind words 🙏🏻 you are truly lovely 🥰 and thank you for watching this big adventure 🐚

[@lucyrosellini]

Hi Maddie!!! What a fun adventure!!! It's so sad that the wind took away the leopard scallop, I never saw one!!! But well, sometimes it happens. I think that the bivalves are underestimated... some of them have so lovely patterns, colours, or shapes. I find so pretty the pens shells and the oysters ❤. The jingles!!!! So interesting to see them joined. As always, it was super fun adventure.

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Lucy 👋🏻💖 Ahh yes, that Leopard scallop was "easy come, easy go" wasn't it 😂? Oh well, I'm sure I'll find more some day 😉 And yes, the bivalves are totally underrated...but when they need to complete with cowries, murexes, and conches, it's not surprising!! Some people really love bivalves the most though, so these shells do have a dedicated fan base as well 😄 when I was at the last shell show, a man told me that his favourite kind of shells are specifically Arc shells! Anyhoo!! Thank you so much for watching 🥰

[@donnasnyder6890]

Thanks for braving the elements lol for all of us shell lovers. That wind was really whipping. Lover the hammer clams Thanks ❤.

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G’day Donna 👋🏻💖 Whipping was one word for that wind, but “howling” felt more correct 🤔 it was so loud! It was worth it for the pretty shells 😂 Thanks for watching the big adventure 🥰

[@oceanluvngal]

Hi Maddie 🙂. Those windy days are something else! Basically free exfoliation treatment for your skin, haha. The bicoloured razor clam, tapestry venus shells and the sea urchins are so pretty. When I heard yiu say he has his teeth in I pictured turning over an urchin and seeing it has dentures. The hammer oysters have lovely colours on their underside, and look like a person sans head. My favourite shells today are the hinged jingles. They would be lovely strung along a string with fairy lights nestled in side.

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Oceanluvn Gal 👋🏻🌊💖 Hahaha, it was a bit like exfoliation 😂 but mostly, I think I just had a layer of sea spray on my face and glasses 🤓 always a unique feeling! The bivlaves were on full display this time, the Circular Tapestry Clams really stole the show in my eyes 👀 but if those Hammer Oysters looked as nice on the outside as on the inside, then I might have gravitated towards them more instead 😅 Ohhh, I didn't think it that with the hinges jingled 😲 they are very delicate, but a careful crafter could turn them into something amazing 🤩 I will need to be on the look out for more of them next time. Thank you so much for watching 🥰

[@lesliel9791]

oh yeah, the tapestry shell is gorgeous..and the pen shell with 2 colors ...once again you've come up with new shell finds!

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Leslie 👋🏻🏖️ Woohoo, I'm glad you liked the bivalves in this one 🐚 those pen shells are really cool...I must admit though, I do like the smaller ones more than the big ones...I have no idea what to do or how to display the larger ones! Those Tapestry Clams though, they're a really lovely type shell!! It was exciting to see something so different this time. Thank you so much for watching 🥰

[@MarivicMagallanes-xt3do]

Omg i loved the biocoloured razor clam! The sea urchins were not spined at all! I think its because they are bivalves. And the MULTISPINED COCKLE! THE ORANGE ON THE TOP! GORGEOUS MULTISPINED BIVALVE! And thank you for reading this maddie!

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Marivic 👋🏻🏖️ Ohhh that Bicoloured Razor Clam is a cool one, right 🤩 Hehe, those sea urchins lost their spines after washing ashore 😉 I didn't pick up ones with spines because they can be a little smelly...they're still urchins though, not bivalves 😂 Bivalves are the one ones that have two shells that join together, like clams and cockles. Speaking of cockles, that Multi-spined Cockle was amazing 🤩 I think it's name is actually a Hairy Cockle; I got the name a little wrong this time (but I'll know for next time)!! Thank you so much for watching 🥰

[@GreenThumbGardener65]

That joined propeller arc is way cool!❤ That joined tapestry Venus is a first! Loved it! Wow! So many joined shells today! How fun was this beach walk?! Fingernail clam was very cool! That tiny clean urchin was very nice as well. Joined propeller arc was my fav!❤

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G’day Green Thumb Gardener 👋🏻🏝️❤️ Soooo many joined shells in this one 🤩 I think I was maybe a little spoiled? The wind was crazy, but the cool shells made it worth it. So the joined Propeller Arc is the favourite today 🤔 they really are crazy shells.., a big crooked looking; I wonder how/why this mollusc needed to grow it’s shell like that as it evolved?? Anyhoo! Thank you so much for watching 🥰

[@JanHastings-ns7ze]

Maddie this is one of the beat videos you have done. My favorites are every shell you found.

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Jan 👋🏻💖 Oh my goodness, a favourite video!!! I'm absolutely thrilled that you enjoyed it 😁 I wasn't sure how well-received it would be compared to others; I must be biased for the sweet swirly seashells, and I sometimes assume that it's also what people want to see I'm so, so glad that a bivalve fan loved this one; there was a lot of fascinating and beautiful shells in this one! Thank you so much for watching 🥰 and for the kind words 🙏🏻

[@CaroleBailey-c9e]

Campbell Strombus I like alot. Maddie you are a joy to watch!

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Carole 👋🏻🏖️ Those Campbell's Strombus shells are just lovely 🤩 especially if you can find one in nice condition 😁 They're definitely a favourite from the Hervey Bay region!! Thank you for your kind words, and thanks for watching 🥰

[@bonjulien62]

The bivalves made just as pretty of an arrangement as the gastropods, lots of pretty and fun shells.

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Bonnie Julien 👋🏻🏖️ They really do make a nice arrangement, don't they?? I don't think I could arrange them nicely on a rock; they definitely needed to me pressed into the sand to really show off their best sides 🐚 Thanks for watching 🥰

[@judishubert6016]

I have always wanted to see a joined jingle so that was so cool, !!!!the favorite of yours was very stunning!!!!

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Judi 👋🏻🏖️ Oh wow, I had no idea that you wanted to see a joined one! I must admit, this was quite a surprise for me as well 🤩 they are so delicate, it's amazing that they could wash ashore intact like that! Ohh, and the favourite Hairy Cockle shell was very cool; I misidentified it, it's actually a new species of shell for me! Thanks for watching 🥰

[@natcobo]

The bucket was my favorite moment!! Lol

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G’day Natalia 👋🏻❤️ Ahhh gosh, that bucket of chaos!! It really wanted to rush ahead and find those shells without me 😂😂😂 Thank you so much for watching 🥰

[@pamdudley6153]

That was so funny watching your bucket roll away! 😂😂😂 I can’t believe all the joined shells you found today. The tapestry clams were gorgeous. 💛💜🧡 Loved all the urchins and cockle shells. 🐚🐚🐚 But I think you are going to be surprised at my favorite… the joined jingle shells. I didn’t know they were a bivalve. That was so cool to see, and you found more than one! Maddie, thank you for a fun adventure. Was a very different day! 🥰🥰🥰

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G’day Pam 👋🏻💖 Hahaha ahhh, I think the bucket of chaos was the highlight from this trip 😂 it’s not lost on me that if I had a normal bucket (on that’s wider at the top like a household bucket is) when it would have looped back to me and everything would have been fine… but noooo, I have maybe the only perfectly cylindrical bucket I’ve ever seen 🤣?? As for the shells, my goodness, it was worth braving the wind to find so many joined bivalves: those Circular Tapestry Clams are amazing! I found plenty of urchins, but I think the jingles were better than them as well 😍 I only knew about them being a bivalve because a friend recently mentioned it (to be honest, I didn’t think much about it before…I probably assumed they were a bivalve?), but also, I was watching a video by Florida Beach Walks and saw her find some in Florida after one of their storms. Maybe it’s possible to find some in Texas, too? I hope so! As always Pam, thank you so very much for watching 🥰

[@jeffreywoitekaitis9470]

Beautiful shells Maddie, I had a good laugh when your bucket tried to run away like the krill in finding Nemo when the whale was trying to eat them. Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G’day Jeff 👋🏻🐚 Haha ahhh, that bucket is my trusty Bucket oh Chaos; I never know what it’ll do next 😂 I’m glad that you enjoyed this adventure, and I’m sorry that I took so long to write back…maybe you’re having coffee with the next shelling trip right now!?? Hehe, thank you so much for watching 🥰

[@Danstarla]

some days be like that where you only find one type of shell. some great finds none the less. thanks for sharing

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Danielle 👋🏻🏖️ Indeed...though I usually don't mind when it's all cowries 😂 Yes, the variety was not what I was hoping for, but I was still surprised by several shells in very nice condition 🤩 It was a nice way to end the day after a big morning in Hervey Bay (last episode)! Thanks for watching 🥰

[@trudymcewen9801]

Hi Maddie, Funny bucket running away from you. I like the inside of the Leopard Scallop and the whole Australian Jingle. Never saw a whole one before. I thought 80 degrees qas gone but a whole weekis coming. I want the 70 and 60 back. Liked the video. Thank you. TRUDY

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G’day Trudy 👋🏻💖 Ahhh that silly bucket wanted to find the shells before I did 😂 That Leopard Scallop was nice with the red colour on that back; I think it’s characteristic of these shells? I don’t mind many of them, but they sure are lovely with some surprisingly vibrant colours sometimes! Hehe, I might be the only Australian to make a video of a whole Australian Jingle?? Buuuut I did see a Florida jingle on a video by Florida Beach Walks; she’s a pretty fun sheller as well 😁 As always Trudy, thank you so much for watching 🥰

[@nikoletastavropoulou5515]

Beautiful shells with wonderful colors. 😊

[@johannaandrews]

LOL a bucket of chaos ( is that what you called your wayward bucket 😂 What a windy day for you Maddie , my favs would have to be those White Hammer Oysters .Love the two toned cardita as well 🐚🐚

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Annie 👋🏻🏖️ Hahaha yesss, that is indeed what I call my black collapsible bucket 🪣 Chaos Bucket is leaky, jumbles the shells, and occasionally runs away by itself. I think the name is spot-on 😂 Ahhh, there was a lot of Hammer Oysters this time, I remember never finding any around here, but suddenly there's heaps! Must be another season shell 🐚 those pretty Carditas are a regular one to find, but I'm still waiting to find a joined on as well 🤞🏻 Thanks for watching the big adventure 🥰

[@bethstelter990]

Great finds ! I enjoy your videos!

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Beth 👋🏻🐚 Thank you 🤩 I'm pleased that you enjoyed the shells today, there was so many bivalves that I thought it might disinterest some people 😅 but again, I'm glad you liked them!! Thank you so much for watching 🥰

[@FloridaBeachWalks]

The brown lined paper bubble was beautiful! Those hammer oysters are very neat 😍 The wind and your flying bucket….hahahaaa oh my goodness it was whipping across that sand! Awesome voiceover parts-couldn’t even tell the difference; great editing! I’ve seen the sand windblown like that a couple of times-looks really neat how all the shells pop up and out when that happens. Hope you had a great weekend and happy shelling!!!!

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Roxann 👋🏻🏖 The wind was really blowing on this one, well, blowing the bucket anyway 😂 There was a surprising amount of really interesting shells this time; I knew about the joined jingles from watching your videos. Ahhh the voice-over; it's almost never necessary to do for my videos... thank you for the kind words, I'm glad it all worked out to sound pretty smooth. I don't know how you do it; it feels like I'm re-doing work that I did/could have done on the day 😂 I really wouldn't have the patience to voice over every video like you do! Thank you though, I had a quiet weekend (my favourite kind), and I hope you had a fabulous start to the week as well. Thanks for watching!!

[@FloridaBeachWalks]

@@SandCoffeeRocks LOL I don't have ease of speaking on the spot--that is a talent I do NOT have but might acquire at some point; who knows. I need to gather my thoughts. I enjoy doing the voiceovers and planning out my intros. Glad you had an enjoyable weekend. The start to my week has included potty training my 2yr old...fun, fun, lol.

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

@@FloridaBeachWalks Everything comes with practice - my old videos didn't have such good narration, but that's fine...I really didn't know much back then, but it was fun to take a crack at it. Ohhh yes, fun indeed 😅 enjoy the rest of your week 😳

[@francescocorrias6633]

High Maddie 👋 That's a very interesting shelling day 🤩 if you needed some nice bivalve shells, you got it 😂😂 Anyway all are beautiful; I am jealous of the tapestry clams you got 🤩

[@francescocorrias6633]

They're just gorgeous, nice hammer oysters too, Antigona laqueata, Pinctada maculata, Lutraria rhynchaena, Tapes conspersus, Jolya elongata, n Chama pulchella, Vepricardium multispinosum, Pinna bicolor and Atrina pectina, this last one is very similar to our Mediterranean Atrina pectinata, 🤔i must look if its about same shell or just synonymous ??? Beautiful interesting shelling 🤩 as always Maddie 😍 just a beautiful moment with you in Queensland ❤❤❤ Francesco

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Francesco 👋🏻💖 Hahaa, so true; this is the place to come to if I need bivalves!! The Tapestry Clams are so lovely, and a first for me to see fresh and joined like this... they look so much better than the old and worn away ones that I usually see along the beaches up there! Oh my goodness Francesco, you are so good with those scientific names; I usually need a spread sheet to keep the all organised! As for the pen shells, I think a lot of them within the Pinna and Atrina genuses look very similar to each other, so if your Mediterranean pen shells are also an Atrina shell, then they will have a close appearance. I think they are probably different species though. Thank you so much for coming along for another shelling adventure 🥰

[@hbwhitetree]

Hi Maddie, Jan here again, from land-locked Austria. I was intrigued by many of the joined bi-valves you found today. The tapestry venus clams are especially lovely, but I like all your finds. You are doing a great job of generating excitement for my upcoming visit Downunder. My hubby and I depart this coming Thursday. We will be in Singapore, Darwin (where I hope to slip in some shelling) & Kakadu National Park, Allice Springs & Uluru, Brisbane and some of the East Coast, finishing up in Melbourne to visit our son, with Singapore again on the way home. Because of your shelling videos, we will spend a few nights in Mooloolaba and a couple in Hervey Bay, where I hope to find some exotic shells (at least fo me) for my collection. Thank you so much for your motivating, fun, exciting videos! I'm looking forward to visiting some of your "home beaches"! Any tips you might have would be greatly appreciated.

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Jan! I think I saw your comment about your upcoming trip a while ago...but I lost the message (it got buried under a pile of things, sorry!) so I'm glad you brought it up again! My goodness, so Thursday is the big day; only a few days now and you must be so excited!!! I've never been to Darwin; all I know is that it's hot up there! I've heard the landscape is beautiful as well. I believe it is OK to take shells from the beaches in the Northern Territory, but not from national parks like Kakadu. Be careful to only collect empty shells from beaches that aren't national parks or "green zones" where collection is a not allowed. I was reading this article the other day that you might find useful: www.shopfinglass.com/en-au/blogs/news/top-shelling-beaches-in-northern-territory-best-spots-for-beachcombers ALSO AND THIS IS IMPORTANT!!! Be VERY MINDFUL of crocodile signs: stay at least 5 meters away from the water's edge at beaches and rives. We have salt water crocodiles up there, and they are nasty and dangerous. Some beaches are safe, but some are not. Again, I've never been to Alice Spring or Uluru either; but I expect them to have stunning scenery as well. I really wish people were still allowed to walk up Uluru, but the view of the rock from the bottom is just as nice. In recent times, Alice Springs has gotten some bad coverage in the media due to safety and crime. Just treat it like any other new and unfamiliar city. It should be pretty safe during the day, but remember to keep your valuables close, and don't wander around too much as it gets darker. Also, I've been told that driving in the dark is also risky due to potentially hitting animals (like kangaroos or camels) while in the outback areas, so be vigilant if you're thinking about driving after dark... or stick to day time driving only. Brisbane is a great city (but my advice about wandering around after dark is still the same). I'm not sure if you are exploring by car or public transport, but this region of Queensland is currently doing 50cent travel fares if you have a transport card. No shelling around Brisbane, and also; stay away of a town in the south of Brisbane called Logan, and a town in the north called Caboolture. I wouldn't try exploring those places, they are not tourist towns with anything to see, and the safety in those areas isn't as good as Brisbane or the Sunshine Coast. For shelling, there is definitely a lot to find outside of Brisbane. Of course, my videos are filmed at Point Cartwright Beach (which I think is best for the Sunshine Coast, but Mooloolaba Beach especially at Alexandra Headland Bluff is good too) or Dundowran Beach at Hervey Bay. Hervey Bay has several beaches in that area, with plenty of shells to find. If you want more in-depth advice about these areas, maybe message me closer to the time (either here, or Facebook, or Instagram, or all of them!) and I might be able to share some more local knowledge. If you want to meet up at the beach one day, or if you see me out there, please say hello~ Once again for places that I've never been to; I haven't seen Melbourne either, but I've heard that it's a more beautiful place than Brisbane. There are lots of shelling opportunities there too, so don't forget to check out Phillip Island if you have time... it's famous for a penguin parade, but I think there are some place to find shells there too! Explore and you might find some more exciting beaches around Melbourne if you have time, too. Thanks for watching, and safe travels!!!

[@hbwhitetree]

@SandCoffeeRocks Maddie, thank you so much for all the valuable advice. My hubby and I have been to Australia before (this will be our 5th trip) and we are visiting several places for a second time (Darwin & Kakadu, Alice Springs & Uluru, Melbourne). Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast are new for us. Your tip about 50 cent fares is appreciated. We will have rental cars in each location, except for Melbourne, but public transportation could be useful while we are in the city of Brisbane. I did know that collecting shells within National Parks is prohibited, I would never want to collect a live specimen, and to be very mindful of crocodile warnings. I will definitely check out the link you sent regarding shelling in the Northern Territory. Thank you for the information about good spots on the Sunshine Coast. My husband is not an avid sheller, preferring to walk the beaches we visit, while I scrounge around searching through shell piles. I guess I could describe our trips as general sightseeing, with some shelling for me on the side. However, much of our time on the Sunshine Coast is reserved for shelling; my hubby will need to entertain himself for a while when we are there! I was reluctant to suggest that we might be able to meet up (I didn't want to be too "stalker-ish"), but I would love to if we can coordinate our schedules. I will try to Facebook Messenger you, to let you know exact dates for our time in Mooloolaba and Hervey Bay. Thanks so much for being generous with your time and information; it is much appreciated! I am very much looking forward to our trip; we haven't seen our elder son for way too many months, I love the nature and landscapes your country has to offer, and I'm very eager to see what I'll be able to find in the tidepools and on the beaches. Maybe I'll see you soon! Jan

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

@@hbwhitetree was hoping to reply back much sooner, but it looks like I didn’t? Yes, message me if and when you’re planning to be at the beaches around here, and I’ll see if that also aligns with my plans 😁 Yes, the Facebook or Instagram messenger will work best, but gimme a nudge here if I’m slow to reply. As for those 50cent fares in Brisbane, it is only if you use the “tap on tap off” Go Cards…I looked into it again, and when you buy one at the 7/11s here, there is a $10 cost for them (technically a deposit that you can get back when you mail the card back to the transport office with the paper work, but I wonder if that works for your international bank cards…) probably only worth it if you each travel more than 4 times (one card per person). But, it includes all south east Queensland trains and buses, and the Brisbane ferries (City Cat) if you want to catch the river side public transport. Might save a lot on parking in the end for when you explore Brisbane.

Ahhh i forgot to put comment here, Hiiii Maddie, Today is the day for the bivalves ❤ Today my favorite are: 1st, the sea urchins 2nd, leafy oyster 🦪 (actually the leafy oyster is my fav bivalve among all bivalves) So fun seeing every single adventure always bring surprise ❤🎉 Thanks for a good video Maddie

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Nelly 👋🏻💖 There was just so many bivalves today!!! Do you have some beaches near you that only have bivalves, no sea snail shells? I must admit, it's a nice way to change things up every one in a while 😂?? Still, I meanly went there to find some sea urchins, so I'm glad that the number one favourites are the green urchins 🤩 Oh wow, and the Leafy Oyster is actually your favourite among all the bivalves 😲 hmm, it makes me wonder what my favourite ever bivalve is? Probably Thorny Oysters (Spondylus) shells 🤔 though I don't have a specific species in mind. Awww thank you for all of your kind words Nelly 🙏🏻 and thank you so much for watching the big adventure 🥰

Oh my goodness Annie 😳 Thank you 🤯 I'm sure, really sure, that this is far too much!! I know I say this often, but thank you so much for your generosity and support! This is a huge Super Thanks ❤️ are you sure this is ok? I hope so, and thank you so much once again 🙏🏻💖 I do have a lot of behind the scenes things to say about this one... though it's most "poor me, that wind was miserable, yadda yadda" 😂 seriously, the wind from this day actually hits my top 3 worst shelling experiences? Really though, I do this to myself 🤣 and I was quite happy with the shells! This time, I believe, was the first time I'd shown a joined Hammer Oyster, but I didn't say that it was my first one 🤫 that's because I show 98% of my shelling adventures on KZbin, but in one of those other 2% adventures, I found several of these oysters at another beach 🏖️ in the end, I chose not to share that adventure (it was quite lackluster) and I felt like the location was a bit tricky to share; not because of anything bad, but because the signage at that place could easily be misunderstood regarding shelling vs fishing as separate activities. No reason to return there anyway, not with the Sunshine and Frasier Coasts in my sights!! My goodness Annie, thank you again for everything you've done for me 🙏🏻 I hope you're having a wonderful start to the week. I know you have some crazy weather right now, but I hope it passes quickly so you can have some of your own shelling adventures as well. Thank you so, so much for watching 🥰

Ahhh the wind was quite miserable, though I tried not to dwell on it 😅 but that level of wind was more intense than any other time I've been out shelling, I think 🤔 or perhaps it was the fact that there wasn't any respite from it on this beach 😅 Still, it was worth it!!

G'day Adrian 👋🏻🐚 Drats, I was looking at that one and considering it as the ID for this shell. In the end, I thought my shell was rounder, but after looking it up again since you said it, and seeing that it's called the Hairy Cockle, well, I guess I chose poorly while editing this one 🤣 As always, thank you so much for the corrections, and thanks for watching 🏖️

[@dibrown3996]

How often do you go shelling?

[@SandCoffeeRocks]

G'day Di 👋🏻🏖️ I go out shelling between 1-4 times per week depending on the weather, the tides, and those video editing days 😉 it works out so I'm not usually far ahead of my videos that I release; they run almost evenly with the amount of times I'm able to go shelling 🐚 last year, I was doing three videos per week, and it worked at first, but eventually I put more time into the videos and the shelling, so taking it down to two was the best move I could have made 🤔 Thank you for watching another big adventure 🥰
