Shelling on Seagrove Beach

[Beach Crazy]

Forgot to post these! I found these not very far apart on the same day, I was soooo excited (That was for you Kimmifunni)

excellent netted olive (left) and only slightly damaged florida small conch (right)!

well done!

FYI: if the olive shell starts to stink, clean it out from the tail end (which is really the head end) with a straightened gem clip and seawater, then spray the inside with febreeze or the like, but protect the outside from spraying (and sunlight) as much as possible or the design will fade

Thanks AB! My dream trip is to Sanibel and it might just come true next summer! Cross your fingers

:clap_1: I couldn't tell you how many of those I collected last year on the beach. And in very good shape. Even some small spiral shells. But does anyone ever find any sharks teeth on the beach there? I always found them on the Atlantic side. Makes me wish I were there looking for shells.

In all my years going to FL. I have only found one shark tooth. I used to find hundreds in Galveston. But, there may be hundreds in Fl too for all I know since I can't see sh*t anymore!!
