G'day Jan 👋🏻💖 Oh gosh, I was kicking myself that I forgot to mention the Zebra Volute; I thought it was one of the nicer shells this time, and it deserves a special mention! That fish was super cool too... I reckon it must have washed in with all of those Violet Sea Snails?? These fish really seem to like the protection of the toxic jellyfish 😅 they're so pretty, too. Thank you so much for watching 🥰

I never tire of Ram's Horns or Wentletraps!!

G'day Maria 👋🏻🐚 Me too, I just love finding the mini Wentletraps (and occasional larger ones) and the sweet swirly rams horns 😉 Thank you so much for watching 🥰

Good morning, Maddie What a good day of shelling. I think I have a first, sertum rock shell. The two different limpits were very nice, mini sand dollars , brown lined paper bubble, two different dove shells, snake heads, donkey cowrie,graceful cowrie, wintaletrap,music cone, dawn mitre, bloched nerites,Humphreys cowrie along with so many of your other shells today. Love seeing the live critters again today. Thank you for another wonderful shelling adventure. Thank you, Maddie 😊

G'day Toni 👋🏻💖 It was such a fun day, although I was quite happy to be out of that wind 🌬️ it's honestly been keeping me away from the beach all week (well, that and the very inaccurate predictions of a storm, uhhh, how do the weather people keep getting this wrong??? Geez 🙄). The little Sertum Rock Shell is a super cool one 🤩 I think I've only ever found two whole ones before? They are quite rare here. The Limpets were surprisingly nice, I actually liked them a lot too 😁 my goodness, there was a lot of great shells today... I think out of all of the ones you mentioned, that Brown-lined Paper Bubble caught my eye the most 😉 but gosh, that big Donkey was a very nice one as well!! The live creatures were the best, I was really intrigued by that fish 🐟 it was so interesting to learn that it lives with the toxic jellyfish for protection! Talk about being brave! Thank you so much for joining me for another shelling adventure 🥰 I think of you often, and I hope you are well 💖

Hi Maddie, I enjoyed your shelling adventure. I think the shells that come from the rock pools are the most exciting to see. That little fish was adorable, I hope he managed to get back to the sea. Thank you for taking us with you. ❤xxxxxx

G'day Alison 👋🏻💖 I'm so pleased that you enjoyed it, I was a bit worried that the wind noise would come through too much 😅 the strong winds have been keeping me away from the beach all week, but hopefully it will be better soon 😜 Oh yes, I think the shells in the rock pools are the most exciting to find, too! Sometimes the shell just aren't in the rock pools, though 😅 but finding a fresh Arabian in one? That's the best feeling! Also, yes, I hope that cute little fish was able to get back out to the ocean and find another toxic jellyfish to keep it company 🤣 no, seriously, I mean it! Thank you so much for joining me on another shelling adventure 🥰

The snake heads are so shiny and beautiful. Love the zebra volute, I think that's the name. Great day shelling. 🐌🐚🌻🇺🇸

G'day Guadalupe 👋🏻💖 I'm always so pleased to find some lovely, shiny snakeheads 🤩 there are quite a few non-shiny ones that I come across too, but ahh, I think I snub them a bit?? The shiny ones just stand out so much more 🤣 Oh wow, and yes, that Zebra Volute was just lovely!!! I wish I had've given it a special mention at the end! As always, thank you so much for watching 🥰

The patterns on the blotched nerite were so pretty. 🏵️ Love the live brown lined paper shells and fishy. 🐟🐟🐟 Ohhhhh, the false limpet 🗻 love it! My favorite was the Australian rock whelk, I guess because it’s different. Wonderful adventure wind 🌬️🌬️🌬️ and all. Thank you Maddie! 🥰🥰🥰

G'day Pam 👋🏻💖 Yessss the Blotched Nerites need some extra love 🤩 haha, ahhh 😆 it was nice to see the live creatures in the rock pools this time: those bubble snails were everywhere!! Oh, so the Australian Rock Whelk was the favourite this time! Also I must say, I really, REALLY liked that false Limpet too, and I'm not usually a big Limpet lady 😂 it was really cool! Oh goodness Pam, it's been so windy all week; it's been keeping me away from the beach 😅 it's just so bad for filming (and for standing in for hours), but what can I do? Sorry, I'm venting my woes, I'll make it work 😜 Thank you so much for watching, Pam 🥰

Hey Maddie!! The Australian Rock Welk takes first place 🥇 today!! The breaks don’t matter, it’s the colors for me!! Plus it’s a rare find in your backyard 🤩🤩 I hope that adorable blue bottle fish 🐟 is okay.. So pretty 😍 The Humphrey’s Cowry is second place 🥈 LOVE IT!!!! 😍 The Graceful Cowries take third place 🥉 Shoutout to the Zebra Volute.. He was a perfect little striped boy!!

Ohhh this was the video with the cute blue fish 🐟 I'm sure it was okay, the water was coming back to get it 🌊😉 The little Humphrey's and Graceful Cowries get the final favourite places today 🐚 they were real cuties!! Gotta love the small ones. I think I liked the Zebra Volute too... I remember being a bit embarrassed about forgetting to give it a special mention at the end 😅 it deserved it!! As always Mimi, thank you so much for watching 🥰

I can never ever resist a donkey cowrie. It is my favourite shell today, with the snake head cowries and ram's horns coming in 2nd and 3rd place.

Thank you so much for watching 🥰

Morning Maddie, Last video the Magpie's are so pretty. Wish we had more here. Now thr Bluebonnet fish was nice to see. Favorite shells are very nice Zebra Volute, Arabian Cowries nice and big, and always the unusual Ram's Head Squid. Thank you and have a good day next time too. XXOO. TRUDY

G'day Trudy 👋🏻💖 Hehe, the Magpie is a pretty bird 🕊️ hmm, but my favourite Australian bird, I wonder what that would be? I think I like the Currawong more than the Magpie, because the Currawong has a beautiful bird call. Kookaburra is pretty cool, but I think I like the Glossy Black Cockatoo best, or perhaps the Pink Galah. Anyway! Onto shells! The Zebra Volute was so lovely this time, I wish I remembered to give it a special mention. And gosh, I still can't believe the Ram's Horns are still washing up!? As always Trudy, thank you so much for watching 🥰

Hi, Maddie, excellent shelling video. I'm a sucker for the live bubble snail. They are so pretty. Another wentletrap 😂 love the juvenile cowrie probably my favorite. I really like that donkey it seemed bigger than usual. You know me and the rock snails. All in all what a good day shelling. Maddie again Thank you for sharing. I know it's very time consuming to make these videos so just wanted you to know how much your time means. You bring joy to so many people. Sending love and thank you's. 😂 new word . Have a wonderful week

G'day Roberta 👋🏻💖 Hehe, those live bubbles are just so cute!! I saw a lot of them with green moss on their shells this time, I wonder why that's happening?? The cowries are just wonderful, that Donkey was definitely a big one, and yes, another Wentletrap!! I think Wentletraps are not too uncommon on this beach 🏖️🐚 I do love them though! Aww thank you Roberta, I do love making these videos, but I spend a lot of time making them -- I'm looking forward to a few week's break after November (I'll announce it close to that time, so I can chill for the busy Christmas beach season) I hope you are have a great week, and thank you for joining me once again 🥰

How many beautiful shells 🐚 ❤.

G'day Pearl 👋🏻🐌 The purplish lace coral is actually called "Pink Lace Coral" and indeed, it keeps its colour, but eventually fades a bit into more of a pink/purple colour. If you want to research this coral too, it has the scientific name: Iodictyum phoeniceum. The light coloured lace coral I picked up today is a different species from a different genus, despite how similar they look 😲 Thanks for watching 🥰
