Hunting for shells after a storm. Post tornado beachcombing on Sanibel Island.

Would much rather watch this than football...unfortunately the TV has been taken over so thank you for putting this out today, you're saving my sanity!! 😂👍😁

[@carolemahoney3766]

Yup 👎football! Especially since half-time show will be evil. Snoop and Dre promote defund police and get rid of police! Sick people Rap use to be good, now it is defaming woman and has vile profanity! But shelling is good!

[@kimberlyaustin6677]

@@carolemahoney3766 I completely agree. I loved it when they had Lady GaGa, that band The Weekend, Even when they had Shakira (sp?) and what's her face. Real bands, real entertainment. Plus I'm not a fan of Rap anyway...blek.

wow, you are really dedicated to shelling, I could never get myself that early to the beach. You did find some really beautiful shells at Sanibel beach.

Getting up that early stinks, but I usually forget that I'm so tired once I hit the beach!

I'm enjoying you teaching us about shelling. What we can and can't take home from our time at the beach. Also to respect the life of the critters that live there. So thank you for sharing your knowledge and love for the beach.

My family spent 50 years shelling on Sanibel starting in 1954. So many incredible memories. Thank you!

[@SWFBeachLife]

That's awesome! Thanks so much for going down memory lane with me!

[@Monkchip]

Sanibel is so beautiful! I was shelling w/my girl friend, both of us with our heads looking down to the sand, and suddenly we knocked heads into each other and fell down onto the sand. And, next, we laughed our axxes off!!!

I am really enjoying your sea shell adventures without having to breathe in the Florida humidity. Lived in Michigan & Ohio for too many years to enjoy the Humidity. Recently was in Naples, caring for my elderly parents, now in Northern California @4,000 ft...not much humidity here. . Caring for remaining elderly parent. Grey squirrels, varieties of bird summer v.s. winter; deer, black bear, coyote & skunks, rats, mice... usual Forest critters; none with hard, colorful 🐚 shells, however. Spring is blooming, pollen in the air & on the vehicles... yep, not much humidity! Not rain, either, in our drought (not-filled) waters. May you enjoy your day!

[@SWFBeachLife]

Sounds like you have a bunch of nature to enjoy where you are too! I grew up in NJ where the summers can be brutally humid and I like the heat so I'm happy as a clam down here. I'm glad you can have your lack of humidity and still enjoy the beach with me!

Your videos are the first I've come across. I like the way you film, no loud music,noise. Very calming.

[@SWFBeachLife]

Glad you like them!

[@debbiedraper7325]

I was at Sanibel recently. I love how you gently put live shells back in the water. It was explained to me to not throw the shells out into the water because the impact is harmful...

[@SWFBeachLife]

Gosh I never thought to mention that. Yes, they shouldn't be thrown back in the water. Those poor little squishy creatures can also be hurt. I'l have to mention that in an upcoming video! Thank you!

[@debbiedraper7325]

@@SWFBeachLife thanks for doing that. I felt bad because I had been tossing them out in order to stay out of the surf. Now I have a long handle shelling basket I can safely release them without getting too wet.

They get violently tossed in the surf among waves and rocks. There’s absolutely zero evidence that landing on the water’s surface is harmful

@Robin Segnitz I'm headed down from WV on March 2nd. I'll be there a week. I was there ( sanibell, venice, & Fort myers) in Nov. I had never really cared for shells but now I'm addicted. Did you mainly shell there? Do you recommend any shelling tours? I had two other ladies with me and done whatever they wanted so I'm curious? I appreciate any input or recommendations. I certainly hope that you had an amazing trip. They say, any day at the beach is a great day. I agree. Thank you for any info.

@@304girlriggs7 I just shelled there on Fort Myers Beach. I find the shelling on FMB better than Sanibel or Captiva, although I have never hit one of them after a major storm.

Hey hey!! New follower - was inspired to visit keewaydin island after seeing your videos. I found SO MUCH AWESOME! Wish I could share a photo here with you but I was like a kid in a candy store. A fairly big horse conch (tan/orange about 4-5 inches long), and tons of alphabet cones (one was very big at 2 d 1.5 inches) and the colors were just so amazing. Tons of pink and orange shells there. I think the colors change some based on the type of algae and other things they're eating. Anyway, bunch of other great ones too. A channeled welk(which I learned what it was from you), and my new fave the buttercup lucenes. I wish I had stayed longer!!! Also I just love the sound of your voice and your accent - well done on these videos!!

Lol. All the lights on the beach! I have a rough time when I go really early too. But, sadly, the early bird really does get the worm... Oh I see a bunch of night lights!😁 Beautiful shark eye! Some of those that size washed up here too. Nice horse conch! LOVE the gold and burgundy scallop! Very pretty crown conch! I must say the live calico scallops you have are to die for. Just absolutely gorgeous! Egg cockles are fairly common up here. I'm thinking I may have sent you one. They can be really pretty pink or orange on the inside.

I would seriously need to be out there at 2am to "beat" anyone to the shells. I may try it one of these warmer days 😅 I find all these shells all over the beaches down here, but Sanibel hands down has the best scallops! I was thrilled with that little pony and it cleaned up so pretty!

Wow those were some great finds! Those big shark eyes and the horse conchs were amazing! I do think you have to get at like 2-3 in the morning to be the absolutely first one out. I've been to the beach at 3 in the morning before (as you've said I am one of those loons haha) and I only ever start to see other people after around 4 AM. Admittedly, that was during the off season but I don't think too many people go at that time anyway. Also, that big shark eye has some discoloration I think due to it being buried in anoxic sand/mud. This happens due to low oxygen levels and it's cool to see how that black was implemented in the growth of the shell! Thanks for sharing, hope you're doing well!

[@SWFBeachLife]

I have only found a handful of those big, fat shark eyes and I just love them. To find 2 in one way was outstanding. I wish I liked the night shelling more. Its drives me crazy I can only see a few feet in front of me and knowing you can only do the night shelling in off-turtle season sure does cut down on the opportunities. A red light would definitely drive me mad! Thanks for watching! I think I have a few of your videos I need to catch up on.
