Hi Maddie, loving all the beautiful shells you found. I must go with the butterfly moon as my favorite. Then the large drupe she'll. Little did you know that found fishing pole would make such a good tool. Your arsenal of tools are the pooper scooper, tong's, and a broken fishing pole. Lol I love it. That beautiful live bubble shell is simply gorgeous. What a great day for you. Just love your narrations and you wonderful sense of humor. I'm absolutely positive that you are a wonderfully kind , loving human. Thank you again Maddie for making my day. Sending a big hug!
G'day Roberta 👋🏻💖 Yesss the Butterfly Moon Snail was a beauty today 🤩 I'm so pleased that you loved it as well 🐚 Haha yeah, I thought that fishing rod would get in the way, but it was very helpful! It was a little hard to climb some rocks while holding it, but the pros definitely outweighed the cons! Again, I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the adventure, and the fun creatures that I sometimes find 🐌 Thank you so, so much for watching 🥰
G'day Joann 👋🏻💖 Hehe, that butterfly moon snail 🐌 was an absolutely wonderful surprise today; they are so rare for me to come across 🤩 As always Joann, thank you for joining my adventures 🥰
Good morning Maddie, the trumpets are awsome again today,the drupe shell was beautiful, the butterfly moon snail is so unique, the zebras are so nice, the music cones colors are beautiful, the cowries ( still learning the names of the cowries) , crown cones, the colors on the scallop is beautiful. The waves are very big today. Wow I like the brown line bubble shell live. I can never ever pick a favorite shell . It looks like you had a great day of shelling. I enjoy watching you get all the beautiful shells. Thank you and have a great day.
G'day Toni 👋🏻💖💖 I certainly loved picking up all the trumpets; I didn't really find any when I went shelling yesterday - I think I got them all for now 🤣 Wow, when you type all the shells out like that, it's really amazing to see how many I ended up finding 🤩 they were all wonderful, especially the live bubbles too 🐌 Thank you, as always, for enjoying the shelling adventures 🥰 I always look forward to your beautiful comments 💖💖 Thanks Toni 👋🏻
Oh my gosh! You gave away the poking tool? 😱 And to Jono no less. 😂 I loved the frog you found. 🐸🐸🐸 I told you about my beach junk box. One time I found a horse standing straight up. Always cracks me up to find stuff like that. 🐎🐎🐎 The butterfly moon snail was my favorite! It’s much prettier than the gaudy nautica. I want to find those colorful moon snails sooooo bad! Thank you for showing us the broken shells! They are all so interesting! Keep up the good work!!! 🥰🥰🥰
G'day Pam 👋🏻💖 I know, I know, the poking stick got a new home 🏠 I was probably going to put it in the rubbish bin when I got back to the car anyway 🤣 Yep, Jono got it. I saw him fishing today, though not with that rod. He did take it apart, but apparently it was too rusty and seized up inside; no matter, it was probably nice on the outside, but cheap parts on the inside. Oh my goodness, your junk box has something like that inside 😹 I actually found more little toys on the wrackline today, one of them I actually rather liked 🤣 Oh my goodness, the Butterfly Moon Snail was such a surprise 🤩 super hard to find them here, only my second in, what, 9 months of shelling every other day? So stoked with it. I'm so pleased you liked the broken shells as well, though they usually go to the outtakes reel 😅 some of them look pretty darn nice, though!! As always Pam, thank you so, so much for watching 🥰 PS, I got a package in the mail today!!!
G'day again Reet 👋🏻🐚 Oh wow, yes the Drupe was a terrific one today 🤩 I really loved the vibrant colour on the bottom too. It's an awesome favourite today; the shape makes it one of the most interesting shells I can find here 😃 just spectacular! Thanks again for watching 🥰
G’day Barbara 👋🏻🐚 Aw gosh, you’re welcome 🥰 I’d be going out there anyway, so it’s my pleasure to be able to go shelling and share it! Otherwise, I don’t think I’d be able to contain my excitement internally all day without looking like I’m going to explode 🤣 haha! Thank you so much for watching my journey 🥰
You always entertain me with the gorgeous shells, wonderful information, and excited way you introduce them. But today, OMG! I’m LMBFAO watching and listening to you whilst you poke around with that broken rod!🤣🤣🤣I NEEDED you today!♥️Tennessee Nana
G'day Cathy 👋🏻❤️ all the way in Tennessee 🤩 I'm happy to bring the beach to your landlocked state ⛱️ I'm so happy that I could brighten up your day with my antics 🤣 I almost regret giving away the fishing pole... I'll just need to find another one in the rocks pools one day ❤️ Hehe. Thank you for enjoying the shells and joining in on the upbeat vibes today (or yesterday rather, I've been slow with my replies today) 🥰
G'day Alyssa 👋🏻❤️ Hehe it's a lovely shell!! I think it's maybe a little more colourful than the Gaudy Nauticas in the US? It certainly makes the shell stand out! Thank you so much for watching 🥰
Morning Maddie, my favorite is the butterfly moon shell. I have to say the big scallop is very nice to. Hope you have a awesome day and hug to you and the baby.🥇🥇🐚🐚
Good morning Sheila👋🏻💖 Yessss it's such a pretty shell, I'm so pleased that you liked seeing it as well 🤩 Oh you know, I've been finding a lot of lovely big scallops lately, I guess it's just the right time to find them?? Same with the oysters too 🤔 Thank you, it's been a wonderful day so far (I'm out shelling and it's super sunny ☀️😎 and hot!) I hope you're having a wonderful day too 🥰 Thank you for watching, and give big hugs to your babies too 😺😺🐈
@@ShellingAdventures Had a great day, woke up toit snowing 🥶🥶🥶it was only 19 degrees Fahrenheit. Can't wait for the weather to worm up a bit ( not super hot) stay cool and safe out there on the beach. See you next video
Good morning Mattie! Congratulations on One hundred episodes 🎉🎉. Please keep up the amazing shelling. I appreciate you sharing your adventures. My favorite shell was the Butterfly moon snail. It is so beautiful! I will be looking forward to your next video!!🥰🥰🥰
G'day Katherine 👋🏻❤️ Woohoo, thank you!! I think the 100 videos on the channel is divided up between shell cleaning, unboxing,and shelling episodes; so the actually shelling adventures is closer to 90 right now, but I'll be at 100 in a month or so, I think!!! Very exciting for me to have been able to do this so consistently over the last eight or nine months 🤩 I'm so pleased that you're still liking all of the shells finds ❤️🐚 Thank you so much for watching 🥰
G’day Donna 👋🏻❤️ Hahahaha 🤣 Oh gosh, I don’t know who I was competing against, but they obviously lost 🤣 I think I’m a winner just by having a nice time out there, though 😉 Thank you so much for watching my shelling adventures 🥰
Good day Maddie ! Wonderful adventure ! I love all of them but my 2 favorites are the leafy oyster and that lovely butterfly moon snail. You know me and the moon snails. Once again you have taken us on a wonderful trip with a great video. You stay safe and please keep these videos coming !
G'day Anita 👋🏻💖 Oh my goodness, they are lovely picks for the favorites 🤩 I'm surprised that the oysters (when I do find them) are actually a popular shell? They do have great colours, shapes, and shine, so I guess I shouldn't be too surprised 😯 Haha yes, I know you love those moon snail, and I just knew this one would be an instant favourite with the #1 moon snail fan ❤️🐌 I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video, and once again, thank you so joining the adventures 🥰
Good Morning Maddie from Virginia USA, love you videos. I have a passion for the Bonnets, so the Japanese Bonnet has to be my favorite, but that Butterfly Moon Snail is beautiful. Would love to see a longer video from you. I just can't get enough of the shelling videos especially from Australia.
G'day Deborah 👋🏻❤️ in Virginia 🤩 You've picked a very lovely bonnet today, that Japanese Bonnet is a bit of a rarity at this beach 🐚 it reminds me a little of the Scotch Bonnets from the US, but less colourful maybe 🤔. Oh my goodness, I think you're the first one to want a longer video with full-excitement Maddie 😆! I do try to keep the lengths more digestable at 12-16 minutes,but I sometimes go longer. I think with what I find, this is about the longest, otherwise you'd see more broken shells and more walking around and talking to myself 😜 but of you want to see that, I actually upload an outtakes reel onto my Facebook page (link in video description) with extra content like that. It usually comes out a few hours before the actual UA-cam episode,too! Anyhoo! Thank you so much for watching 🥰
It was a great day for you the Butterfly moon was so pretty , I love the live snails they are so pretty. all your shells are so nice, Hi, from Michigan.
G'day Dennis 👋🏻❤️ Hello to you in Michigan 😁! It was an absolutely wonderful day, only my second Butterfly Moon snail in, what, 8 or 9 months of shelling every other day?? Wow, I was spoiled today 🥰 Thank you so much for joining the adventure today 😊
Hi Maddie, the patterned moon snail was very striking, also loved the humped drupe it’s the colouring and shape, I would never get tired of finding those. All lovely though, fishing rod too😂. Xxx
G'day Alison 👋🏻❤️ Right?! The moon snail is wonderfully colourful and contrasting 🤩 I'm surprised that I nearly missed it, though it was mostly covered in sand in a corner of rocks 🤣 So many great shells today too, I'm so pleased that you enjoyed them as much as I did 🐚 Thank you so much for watching the adventure 🥰
Hey Maddie. Loved your butterfly moon snail too! And the leafy oyster & gorgeous scallop. Looks like you had another great day. Keep it up you’re doing great. More followers as you deserve.
G'day Mary 👋🏻🐚 Wow, those are wonderful picks for the favourites!! The Butterfly Moon Snail is awesome, though I'm surprised how many people like the oyster shells when I find them 😯 I'll need to keep my eyes peeled for more of those whacky,shiny,colourful guys in the future too!! I had a wonderful day, but I usually do because the beach is just a wonderful place ⛱️ Thank you so much for joining the adventures with me 🥰
G'day Kathleen 👋🏻🐚 hello to you in Southern California! Is it warm enough to go out sheller there yet?? Oh my goodness, those are lovely picks for the favourites 🤩 they were wonderful stand-outs from the other today 🐚 Thank you so much for joining the shelling adventures 🥰
Hello Maddie, You sure find more shells than any other sheller. My favorite is the Butterfly Moon and Leafy Oyster. It is different from our leafy Oyster. If that frog were alive it would be poisonous. Wow, and the fishing rod find. Always love the little critters so much. You as a person are awesome with your fun personality. I give you a 100 percent on your videos presentations. Take care. Be careful. XXOO. TRUDY
G'day Trudy 👋🏻💖 Oh wow, you liked that oyster too!! I was just thinking today: what makes these shells popular 🤔 is it their shapes, colours, shine? I'm not entirely sure if it is a Leafy Oyster, that was just my best guess~ I'm also super pleased that you enjoyed that butterfly moon snail, it's been a while since I've seen one of those at the beach 🤩 Aww Trudy, I think you are too generous with your words ❤️ Thank you for being my biggest supporter on this shelling journey 🥰
Wow, 70 different species!!!?? Are you sure that's right, it seems like a lot 😯 I suppose I did find a lot of unusual and uncommon species during the super low tide, though 🤔 lucky me for having such a variety! You know, that's what I've always wondered: for the Florida shellers, are there a lot of other shells that they just don't show, therefore more variety at the beaches than what you actually see in their videos, or is it generally just about the same as what you see in their videos? Anyway! All I can say is that I'm one extremely lucky sheller 🤩 Thank you so much for watching my little adventures in the rock pools 😉
G’day Grace 👋🏻🐚 Oh my gosh yes, that lined paper bubble is also called the rose petal bubble because it’s so beautiful 😍 I really wish that the shell was as outrageously colourful as well, but you know, it’s still pretty cool 😎 hehe! Thank you so much for watching the adventure, the little snail was such an awesome creature to share with you 🐌❤️
That butterfly moonsnail, 😍. Prickly spotted drupe, and humped rock, and zebra volutes, also top my list today. I am slowly learning to ID some of the shells before you can name them but several of the cowries still confuse me. I did recognize the cherry though, haha..
G'day Oceanluvn Gal 👋🏻❤️ Hehe I know right, the Butterfly Moon Snail is just too ridiculous gorgeous 🦋 I wish they were more common 😍 Ooh nice picks for the humped rock shell, drupe, and zebra volute as the other favourites; they really stood out as amazing shells too 🤩 Oh wow, you're really learning the shells 🐚 I think you'll be an expert in no time!! Wow, I know you can do it ☺️ good on you for getting the cherry 🍒 or do you think "carnelian" is a better word for this cowrie? Anyhoo! Thank you so, so much for watching the adventures 🥰
G'day Edith 👋🏻❤️ Hehe, that moon snail is a resounding favourite today 🐚 I was so incredibly lucky to spot it out of the corner of my eye 👀 but all of the of shells were wonderful finds as well; I'm really so blessed to live near this amazing beach ⛱️ As always Edith, thank you so much for watching the adventures 🥰
Hi Maddie Love the big Arabian Cowrie one day I hope to find some big Cowries myself in the meantime I will just have to be content watching you find them which is quite enjoyable
G'day Aussie Dirt Digger 👋🏻🪙 I hope you've been finding the time to have your own treasure hunting adventures lately, too 🤩 Yesss you gotta come to the sunshine coast one day and get your own big cowries - there's plenty to go around (or at least it seems that way from my perspective) you just gotta be a little lucky 😜 Thank you, as always, for coming along on the shelling adventures 🥰
G'day Sharlene 👋🏻🐚 Yessss such a good choice for the favourite ❤️ or maybe I just didn't have many other spectacular shells today 😜? Hehe 😋! Thank you so much for watching the beachy adventure today 🥰
Hey lady, The Butterfly Moon Shell resembles the Gaudy Nautica of SW Florida. Have you ever looked at the sand dippers for reaching the hard shells to reach? 🤔
G'day Trina 👋🏻🐚 It sure does look like a Gaudy Nautica 🤩 I like to think that my moon snail is a little more contrasted than them, maybe 🤔? Well, I can honestly say that I never looked at a sand dipper before: I googled it just now 🤣 wow, surprisingly expensive for what it is? My free fishing pole and $2 tongs did the trick just fine 😉 though I don't have the pole anymore. Hmmm, it's nice to know what sand dippers are, they are different than the shell rakes I've seen, but I don't think I need one. Most of the shells I need are not too hard to reach for, although it is a struggle sometimes while holding the camera 📸🤳 haha 😆 Thanks again for watching, Trina 🥰
G'day Reet 👋🏻❤️ Ahhh I see the one you're looking at. Those shell are what I call a rock snail, though I'd need to look around a bit for it's actual name and scientific name. It's a somewhat common shell here: it's heavy, usually rough feeling, and undecorated. I pulled a big one out from between a few rocks on my last trip to Coolum Beach last week, but it didn't get into the UA-cam video, and instead went to my FaceBook outtakes reel. If you want some extra shelling fun, I recommend checking out what's available to watch over there 😉 wow, didn't that turn into a shameless plug for my other social platform??? Anyway! Nice catch on the rock snail, Reet! Thank you so much for watching 🥰
Ahhhh I didn't recall that I was going to give you a proper shell ID for this video until I saw it in a book just now. That shells that you pointed out should be something like a White Rock Snail (Dicathais orbita) some are smooth-shells, while some have ruffles. I think that's... mostly correct ;D Very common on the eastern shores of Australia, apparently. Thanks again, Reet!

G'day Trina 👋🏻🐚 It sure does look like a Gaudy Nautica 🤩 I like to think that my moon snail is a little more contrasted than them, maybe 🤔? Well, I can honestly say that I never looked at a sand dipper before: I googled it just now 🤣 wow, surprisingly expensive for what it is? My free fishing pole and $2 tongs did the trick just fine 😉 though I don't have the pole anymore. Hmmm, it's nice to know what sand dippers are, they are different than the shell rakes I've seen, but I don't think I need one. Most of the shells I need are not too hard to reach for, although it is a struggle sometimes while holding the camera 📸🤳 haha 😆 Thanks again for watching, Trina 🥰
@@ShellingAdventures There is a cheaper version. 😊
Wait! What's that shell at west/north/west from where your finger is at at minute 8:37?
G'day Reet 👋🏻❤️ Ahhh I see the one you're looking at. Those shell are what I call a rock snail, though I'd need to look around a bit for it's actual name and scientific name. It's a somewhat common shell here: it's heavy, usually rough feeling, and undecorated. I pulled a big one out from between a few rocks on my last trip to Coolum Beach last week, but it didn't get into the UA-cam video, and instead went to my FaceBook outtakes reel. If you want some extra shelling fun, I recommend checking out what's available to watch over there 😉 wow, didn't that turn into a shameless plug for my other social platform??? Anyway! Nice catch on the rock snail, Reet! Thank you so much for watching 🥰
@@ShellingAdventures shameless plug indeed! 😂 well I’m following you over there too now!
Woohoo 🎉 Ahem!!! I mean, thank you very much Reet 💖
Ahhhh I didn't recall that I was going to give you a proper shell ID for this video until I saw it in a book just now. That shells that you pointed out should be something like a White Rock Snail (Dicathais orbita) some are smooth-shells, while some have ruffles. I think that's... mostly correct ;D Very common on the eastern shores of Australia, apparently. Thanks again, Reet!
