Sanibel Ann and Nick
On the beach off West Gulf Drive yesterday, I ran in to two shellers I told you about in January. Clark met Sanibel Ann at the lighthouse beach looking for WENTLETRAPS on the 30th of January and then I met Nick with a live ALPHABET CONE on January 23rd. They are stilling combing the beaches for shells……this time I saw them together. Why? Because I just found out they are married. Love is shelling.
My true tulip and Sanibel Ann's horse conch
Sanibel Ann found this beautiful bright yellow HORSE CONCH and within 5 minutes I found this TRUE TULIP that I could describe as maybe terra-cotta color. What color would you describe that as? How ever we describe them, we both consider them great finds for the day.
Clear water off West Gulf Dr in Sanibel
I shot this picture just in case you had any questions about our water clarity and color in the gulf. Gorgeous!
The water looks amazing!! I’ll be there Monday – save some shells for meeee! lol
The sky and water are amazing! Sure wish I was there.
Some think bigger is better…but you have proven that great beauty lies in the small as well! I guess other than jingle shells and the ever lovely and colorful coquinas I really was passing up the “little guys”. No more! Hope to be there the week between Christmas and New Years! Cross your fingers for us! I sure enjoy your postings, Pam. Thanks.
“Sanibel Ann” is that her real name or a nick name?
Glad you included the water clarity photo, I’m sure we are all thinking about the oil and how it will effect Sanibel.
