- Hi friends!
If you are going to watch any of my Maine shelling videos, THIS has to be the ONE!
Hurricane Fiona came within a short distance of the coast of Maine, but its strong impact created high surf and winds. The result was higher, meaner tides that brought in some amazing shells from the cold Labrador Current.
I found some shells that I have NEVER found before in Maine - amazing!
This ended up being a longer episode(many of you have actually asked for longer episodes), so here you go! Informative, exciting and shell-tastic...literally.
Maine never disappoints, especially after a Hurricane!
The piece of Iceland Scallop is gorgeous; it has fab texture! Thanks for taking us along, I would like to add, what a beautiful beach ⛱️ 😎
I was over the moon when I found this! These recent storms have really churned up the water in the Gulf of Maine!
Thanks for watching!
I am Loving the Deep Sea Scallops! 😍
I could almost smell the fresh air of Maine. Waved welks are new to me. Blue mussels are pretty. Clear acrylic nail polish will bring out the eye of the moon snails. Have fun in all your travels and discoveries.
Hi friend, I am so glad you enjoyed the content from Maine. The air here is indeed fresh and wonderful!
Thanks for watching!
A great diversion from hurricane Ian. It lends a voice that all maybe lost but life does go on.
Tell that to the people who lost everything in Fort Myers FL. Including lives.
Hi friend, I too am deeply devastated by the impacts of the recent Hurricane in SW FL - it's truly heartbreaking. I am confident though, the Floridians will recover from this tragedy.
Florida strong!
❤
Thank you for the post Fiona adventure!
Hello, more storm shelling in Maine to come!
Thanks for watching!
The top of the hinged oyster is beautiful.
Some of the rocks are awesome too.
Hi friend! Indeed, the cobble-rocks in Maine are very unique!
Loving the blues in the shells.
Thanks fir sharing. Awesome finds....Janet.
Oh and thanks fir tge beach walk hun.
Thank you so much for watching!
The northern moon snails are so cool!Good shelling day.My favorite Sanibel didn’t fair well with the hurricane.It makes me so sad!Thx for taking us along
Thank you so much for watching!
Was a beautiful video as always!! Super cool finds. Loved the deep sea scallops and the sand dollar. Definitely a beautiful place to wander and enjoy the views. Thank you for all the educational pieces you put in to your videos as well😁. Love exploring with you! Till next time 😉
Wow...just love all those big blue shells as in the Atlantic Surf Clam, and the Horse mussels! Sure hope you can or have found a really good size Northern Whelk! A little request to show us more of the inside of the shells please and thanks! Just love to see the colors, if any, on the inside of the shells! Blessings and more happy shelling!
Thanks so much for the feedback, and thank you for watching! 🐚 ❤️
I really like the big Neptune cobb. Cool find.
Hi friend! This was for sure one of my faves - by the shape of it, it looks like it would have been a monster size!
Thanks for watching!
Awesome video! Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Awesome video 👍 thank you
Hi friend, thank you!
I love watching your videos for many reasons; beautiful beaches, music, cinematography, layout, your personality and amazing shell finds. And I really enjoy when you add technical content concerning shell species, location, currents, etc. Very nice job! Thanks for sharing.😊
Thank you so much for the great feedback! I always try to make my approach as complete and comprehensive as possible - I like to think of my content as Shelling+
Thanks so much for watching!
I did like the longer video, plus the extra info. Loved the deep sea scallops, the icelandic scallop, and that last northern moonsnail! Wow! Very beautiful scenery and vistas as well! TY!
I always have a delicate bag too.
My daughter shared this with me. She didn’t know that I follow you. I enjoy your videos very much. We live outside of Bangor,Maine. I was so excited to see someone from home that has a channel about shelling. I love to watch people that have the ability to teach while they are having fun. Keep up the good work.
Aww thank you very much for the valuable feedback. I am so happy that you and your daughter enjoy this content!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I am at the Outer Banks of NC. You have so many rocks there in Maine. Not so here. I have found the Northern Moon snail but most have barnacles attached to them. Right now there are blue oyster shells, blue scallop, some white cockles and the eastern quahog. All the false angle wing white shells are broken. Hard to find a whole one as they are so fragile. Many pieces of driftwood showing up this month. I collect them for my beach cottage to use in the landscaping. Am enjoying your scenery up there in Maine.
Hi friend, thank you so much for watching my content!
I have been to the Outer Banks before... it's unlike any place I have seen. I have not however, been there to shell for this channel - sometime soon!
Love Your Videos, Surprised you found Sand dollars intact in all of those rocks , Thank You 😊
Hi friend! Oddly enough, I often find the sand dollars whole. I think this is because when they are alive they are buried in sand close to shore and don't get battered by waves like some of the deep water shells.
Thanks for watching!
What a fun shell hunt! I just love when the surprises keep coming!
Hi friend, always have shell surprises!
Thanks for watching!
Horse mussels in Mexico are pink too.
...the laugh at the end of the video when you found that last moon snail...OMG...so infectious...! ...and this adventure was a gem...thanx for letting me tag along!!!😊
Thanks for the positive feedback, my friend. I am so glad you enjoy all of these adventures!
Those Northern Moon snails and deep-sea scallops are my favorite. Love the video, Thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you so much for watching!
u r my favorite person ever
Wooo! Thank you! 🐚
Just got back from Maine last night after a beautiful week. Found 10-11 sand dollars and some pretty sea glass. Thank you so much for taking us on your shelling adventures; they are a good fix when I’m unable to be there myself. Hearts and prayers for Florida.
Thank you so much for watching, friend - I appreciate your viewership!
The rocks are just as pretty as the shells 😄. I love those giant moonsnail cinna-buns, and the giant Atlantic clams....so awesome!
Hello! Yes, there are soo many amazing rocks that can be found along the Maine coast. I used to pick up more of them, but the bag gets heavy VERY quickly, lol.
Thanks for watching!
I like the hinged clam shell and the other shells you found, whilst being sandblasted, are very pretty too. Thank you for sharing your exciting day.
Hi friend, yes I think this one you are referring to is the Oyster?
There was an extra amount of sandblasting going on with those wind gusts, haha!
This is an AWESOME video! Loved the beach shot out to the sea. Beautiful pebbles, beautiful water, and beautigul sky!!!
Thanks so much for the positive feedback, and thanks for watching!
I really enjoy your videos. Always learn something more about the sea.
I am so glad you enjoy the content!
Thanks so much for coming along!
Such enjoyable video with exciting finds, beautiful views and interesting information! Thank you! ❤
Hello friend, thank you so much for watching!
Love all the finds. Great shelling day. I’m definitely going to check out the worms site. Thank you for sharing! 🤗🐚🐚🐚🐚
Really like your videos. These shells are gorgeous and so different than SW Florida shells.
Hi friend! Yes, Maine shells are quite different than shells from SW Florida.
Don't get me wrong, I love Florida shells, but I personally love highlighting that you can find beautiful and colorful shell treasures along the Maine coast as well!
I also use WoRMS to help identify my shells.
It's such a handy and intuitive resource, especially with lesser known species!
Awesome finds!!! Going out today post hurricane in Jersey to see what I can find 😊
Hi friend! Ooo maybe you'll find a Knobbed Whelk, or a Sharkeye?!
Thanks for watching!
@@solaceinshelling6552 I went out tonight with a head lamp on hahaha and I found like 60 shark eyes! I would have found more probably but I started getting scared being in the dark alone. I also found a HUGE knobbed whelk about 9 inches long in perfect condition that opened on the left side! Total scores.
I love your channel. Why don’t you carry a Tupperware or Rubbermaid container with you? That would protect the smaller shells from breaking.
Hello! This is great feedback!
I normally put everything into my mesh shelling bag, but a small Tupperware container for the tinies/delicates is a great idea!
HEY YALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Slipper snails
Where did you get your carry bag? I would like one but live in Australia Queensland.
Hi friend, one of my friends got this bag for me a year ago - I believe the maker is "SunSport Canvas".
@@solaceinshelling6552 thank you, I will try a sports store here
Never thought of that. I just subscribed as I love shells and rocks. Staysafeand enjoy the shells.🙏💚💛
I’ll be near Bar Harbor, Maine soon. Do you have any recommendations for shelling in that area?
Hi friend, I have been to a couple places in that area a while ago, but visited Acadia NP and did some hiking. I would guess that Mount Desert Island(where Bar Harbor is located) in general should have good collecting opportunities, as well as Mount Desert Narrows - any place you can pull off the side of the road and get down to a cobble stone beach would be a location that should provide you with some goodies, I'm sure. Best at low tide if possible!
You might find the following: Blue Mussels, Surf Clams, Periwinkles, Dog Whelks, Deep Sea Scallops, to name a few. Good luck, and enjoy Maine!
Thank you!
@@kellykeating8523 find Lamoine state park, drive past the park road about a mile and the town beach is at the end of the road, it's a public beach, excellent finds. Frenchmans Bay! It won't disappoint.
Ian or Fiona, yea?...........................
Hi friend! This was during Hurricane Fiona a few weeks ago. The storm didn't hit Maine directly, but rather was a couple hundred miles out to sea - it created high surf and winds here.
Thanks for watching!
