      G'day Mimi 👋🏻💖 Oh goodness, yes, it was a gloriously beautiful day 🏖️ Oh wow, the Cat Cowrie of all things was the favourite today? I thought the Deer Cowrie would be a easy winner for most people...not that it's a competition 😅 but I guess picking a favourite is a little like choosing a winner each time?? Haha 😂 The Giant Hairy Triton this time almost got overlooked, but I'm so glad that you picked it as a favourite too... I nearly forgot I picked it up with all of the giany moon snail excitement for the day! Thanks for watching 🥰

    Good morning, Maddie
    You got so many beautiful shells today. I just love the teardrop bean cowries, both kinds of wintaletraps ( love the dark one, it is also a big one), the mini sand dollars, the biggest moon snail, the Nerites, the little Arabian cowrie, orange mitre, nicobra thorny oyster ( love the colors), carrier shell, crowned cones, angle wing, spotted deer cowries, yellow-toothed cowrie, scaly scallop (very nice color), oh my goodness I could keep going on. 😊
    The waves looked like they were trying to get very big. Hearing the water is amazing to me. Looks like you had some very big winds out there today. Thank you for sharing another wonderful shelling video. I just enjoy the large variety of shells you pick up. You don't just pick up a choice few shells. Even though they are beautiful as well. I hope you have a wonderful day. See you in your next video 😊

      G'day Toni 👋🏻💖 I think I might have spent too long finding the mini shells... there was so many to put out this time!! The video was also running a bit long too, but ahhh, that might not be a bad thing every once in a while - it means there is more fun things to find! I'm so glad that you liked those Wentletraps and awesome little minies. The Deer Cowrie really put a smile on my face, but gosh, that yellow Scaly Scallop did it as well!
      Oh no, no, the waves weren't too big this time, but I suppose they were quite rough and choppy. The are always the most unpredictable thought, which makes me a bit timid around them. Oh gosh, thank you for your kind words Toni, I'm so glad that I could once again find a wonderful variety of fun shells for you to see and learn about 😊 I hope you're having a wonderful day too! Thank you so much for watching 🥰

    Hey Maddie ! What a beautiful day ! That is the first Migrating Moon Snail that I have seen and I LOVE it.. That oyster shell is gorgeous. I love the paper bubble shell. I never get tired of the dove shells. All of them. Beautiful teardrop bean cowry shells too. Wowser wow that HUGE bladder moon snail is awesome and my favorite. Second is the migrating moon snail. Third is that beautiful dark spotted deer cowry. Thanks for the adventure and those new shells. Love ya girl.

      G'day Anita 👋🏻💖 It was such a lovely day... made even better by a gentle wind instead of the gales from previous weeks 🤣 Oh wow, the Migrating Moon Snails was a cute one, right?!! They're pretty hard to come by; I rarely ever find them! There were so many great minis today, I'm glad you liked the bean cowrie, dove shells, and that beautiful paper bubble 😲 Haha, oh yes, the big Bladder Moon Snails was so large today; I must've been the first one to go to the rock pool and find it this time 🤩 lucky me! Same with that Deer Cowrie too. It looked like there was dried sea foam around the rock pools (only just cleared up after the wind whipped it up) so these beauties could have been sitting there for days, but no one could see them?? Crazy to think about! As always Anita, thank you so much for watching 🥰

    W O W Maddie! Fantastic shelling day today! 🎉 The moon snail was huge. 🐌🐌🐌 I know that was very exciting for you! ❤ I loved all the shells today but my favorites were the carrier shell and the gyre triton! 🐚🥰🐚 You found some really fun things today. I really liked the pleated nerite and the brown and white oyster that didn’t have its spines. Wonderful video Maddie, thank you! 🥰🥰🥰

Such a beautiful morning for finding the minis and checking the rock pools 🤩 I just knew you'd like seeing that Carrier Shell, and oh boy, I might have found an even cooler one to show you next time too? The Gyre Triton is super adorable... I forgot to give it a special mention 😅 I really should have given it a shout out at the end. Thank you so, so much for watching, Pam 🥰

    Hi Maddie, loved the deer cowrie and yes that bladder moon snail was so large you could put a saddle on it and ride it home!
    I loved the carrier shell too, something about their irregular shapes and colour attracts.
    How very dare you Maddie!@ suggesting that the sea beans come from where I live in UK, far to exotic for our shores, so you can keep them - I like your sense of humour too😂😂😂😂😂.
    The final display was spectacular today! ❤

      OH MY GOSH ALISON!! Oh COURSE the beans come from the UK. Who knows what you find mudlarking around there, I'm sure you have your own exotic things floating around the Thames! Hahah!! Thank you so much for watching 🥰 and PS, I do want to toot my own horn: the final display too ages to set up, but gosh, I think it turned out pretty good too!!

      G'day Erin 👋🏻💖 Hehe, that dark Wentletrap was a big (and beautiful) surprise! Honestly, noticing that huge moon snail was also a bit shocking; my eyes almost saw that sand coloured shell as just a rock!! I don't know if I'd call it mega, but it certainly has a good size about it 🐌❤️ and if one shows up with this size, who's to say that more won't follow?? Thanks for watching 🥰

    Hi Maddie
    The Pleated Nerite was very nice along with the other Nerites. And the selection of Cowries didn’t disappoint either but what a monster of a Moon Snail, well done. Thanks for sharing your experience.

The Cowries and that huge Moon Snail were fantastic too, I was so surprised by the finds this time!! Thank you so much for watching 🥰

    Good morning Maddie, that ended up being an awesome shell gathering day. 😂 absolutely love the yellow oyster. The Wentletrap queen strikes again 😂 beautiful brown on it. What a huge moon snails Maddie and beautiful as well. I have no idea for sure if those little sand dollars are called puffer sea biscuits or not , but I've heard them called that on different occasions. So tiny and so cute. Anyway thanks for sharing again. As usual you put on an excellent video.

Haha, I don't know if I'm the Wentlewitch or not, but maybe they're just washing up more lately??? That brown one was extra special though, I hope this means I might find more like it in the future 😉 Oh, and Puffer Sea Biscuits for the mini Sand dollars? I will have to look into it, you might be into something? As always Roberta, thank you so, so much for watching 🥰

    Maddie awesome video. Such a great beach for shells. Pleated Nerite new but will go to live list. Loved the purple Oyster. Loved the Nicobar Thorny Oyster. Yellow Scaly Scallop on pretty. The biggest Bladder Moon ever, wow. What an awesome place to hunt for shells. Take care when the sun is out but then I know you will. You cover up so well and use your sun block. The oak leaves are coming down now way ahead of schedule. I was mowing up leaves till Turkey Day last year. I hope my sin Chris can help me. Much Love, TRUDY

The big Bladder Moon Snail was the icing on top for a day like this. Oh Trudy, I know Chris will help you whenever he can with the yard work. I saw your message earlier about being tired, and I'm sorry that it's like this. You have so much on your plate right now, and I think it's a good time to know your limits. Don't worry if the leaves don't get cleaned up straight away...maybe they'll blow over into the neighbor's yard 😆!! I'm sure you will focus on the things that matter most, and let yourself rest for whatever matters less. I know it's easy for me to say, but you don't need to fight so hard 😉 Don't let yourself become bogged down 💖 Thank you for being here for me, and I'll be there for you when I can, too 🥰

      @SandCoffeeRocks  Рік тому +5

      G'day SoUm 👋🏻 Please do not worry, there are still heaps of shells at the beach for hermit crabs to use for themselves, and so many more shells and crabs that we will never see because the tide will never go that low. More and more shells wash in every day from the abundance in the reefs, and again; that's just what makes it to the shore. Their ecosystem is not in danger, everything is fine 😅 no one is wreaking havoc, the crabs and environment are doing really well here. Thank for watching 🐚🦀
