Love that the beach is looking so good and everything is slowly rising again. Mother Nature is definitely a clever girl. Lovely video as usual. Hugs and stay safe xx

[@SWFBeachLife]

It's starting to come back and it's great to finally see other people on the beach but the traffic!! I won't go over there unless it's first thing!

[@JILLCritterologist]

I just love the way you think. Shelling in the water -- "it feels like a video game to me!" That sunrise was stunning! And when it was over, you consoled yourself, "but now I can see the seashells much better." I admit, I tend to charge into the water when there are dolphins. Never really thought twice about it, but next time I'll hear your voice, "I don't want to be knocked over by an 800 pound dolphin, thank you very much!" And thank YOU very much for taking me along on another beautiful shell-filled beach walk.

My mom found Sanibel in a 1/16 page ad in a magazine in the late 80s. We’ve gone for thanksgiving most years since. Love this place, reminds of simpler days. Back then you could spend 8 hours on the beach and see maybe 10 elderly couples shell hunting.

[@SWFBeachLife]

Those were the days! Now you have to share the beach with lots of other beachcombers. There are plenty of shells to go around!!

The shell museum walk was indeed enjoyable and it is nice to finally see some people on the beach. I don't necessarily like the "competition" but there are plenty of shells to go around and it feels like the island is finally coming back to life a little!

Well, this is a case of "better late than never"! I have been so exhausted by the needs of my bed-bound husband that I haven't been able to check out the video before now. This is my reward for all the hard work! What a sunrise! The pink fading into purple is just gorgeous! We've had a couple of amazingly beautiful sunrises and sunsets up here in Tennessee lately. Maybe the sky was trying to make amends for the foot of snow it gave us a few weeks ago! Wow! You did very well today, Beach Angel! I'm so happy to hear the joy in your voice!

Sending hugs... caregiving can be a huge job, even with help. I hope you can take a break every so often. We were able to utilize a home care agency to help with both sets of parents. If that's an option for you (and you're not doing it already), I hope you'll give it a try. I know you want to do everything for him yourself, familiar with that feeling, but if your health breaks down because of exhaustion, that's no good either. Sorry.. I know I'm jumping in with advice when I know nothing about your situation... but I'm concerned about you (and about your DH as well, of course). I'm glad you could take a short midweek break and enjoy beach-walking!

[@monicaeaton8860]

Love that you have a link to buy the shells from that particular day! Clever!! Love the freak shell so much!!!! **** LMFAO “it’s like the sand! It’s there!!” That’s how I feel about scallops, lady in waiting AND slipper snails over here.

[@SWFBeachLife]

Oh, I like the Lady in waiting clams. I think I just like saying that very long name. Nah, I like the ridges. Not as cool as imperials though. I'm hoping to maybe take a ride east and see if I can score one of those purple shells! 💜

Thank you for watching!

[@JulieMarshall-fl3bi]

Curious as to what part of Sanibel you were on. Was there today and found some nice bivalves but no gastropods except for one olive. Frankly it didn't live up to expectations. And we didn't see any of the ones you found here.

[@SWFBeachLife]

I have to admit this winter has been overall a little bit "slower" than I would have liked. Typically the shells are just there in the winter, but I'm finding it harder to find them too. It's not just you or the island - it's been a weird winter.

[@Danit.Talkscentswithme]

I’d love to see how you store your beautiful shells or display them after you’ve collected them 🥰♥️👏

[@SWFBeachLife]

It's getting to be about that time! I have done a "collection" video every year and it's about time I go through my shells and see if there are any I need to get rid of to make room for new ones 😃 Then I'll show you how I store them all but here's the video from last year: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYu0h3aBeK-EkM0

The upper wrack line is usually good here as the park closes at night for the general public. I'd say you did way better than we did! Curious where you walked. We hit Lighthouse, Bowman's, and Blind Pass. Didn't see much big stuff but found those cuties I sent you. Oh I did find the cutest tiny tiny orange rough scallop too! Thanks Sharmon. xxoo

[@SWFBeachLife]

It does my heart good to hear that Sanibel is busy once again. They did a great job "reflooring" the beach. I wanted to ask you about the turtle nests. Were you there when the babies went into the gulf?... or am I confusing that with a different beach? Ohhh and I loved the sneak peek! Was that a Sea Snail? A Scaphella Junonia? I'm very excited to see that beach trip. Thank you so much for taking me along. I enjoyed it very much!! Until next Sunday my beautiful beach friend. See you then. ❤

I have only seen one little baby turtle make its way into the ocean over here on the Gulf Coast. Turtle season down here is April thru October so maybe this year I'll get to see more babies. And yes, I finally found my first whole junonia! I can't wait to share!

That was a great walk and a beautiful sunrise! Nice to see the hotel ready to reopen, too, and the beach work that has been done! Lots of good finds, as usual! You know, the reason I don't learn the latin names are because I have no idea how to pronounce them--same with botanical names! Maybe we should start with some easier ones, like the nauticas/naticas or the cones!

[@SWFBeachLife]

The only reason I'm interested in the scientific names is they don't change from region to region. Some of these shells are called different things in different areas and it makes it confusing. The scientific name is the same no matter where you find the shell or critter. I'm more of a relaxed type of gal, but there is an appeal there for me to learn at least a few of those scientific names 😌
