    I always love the critters you find and show us! It takes me back to fond memories of childhood trips to the beach and how my brother and I would get so excited about finding live ocean critters on the beach. Often times we would put them in a container and take them back to the motel room to watch them for a while. Don’t worry! We always returned them to the ocean!

    • @SWFBeachLife
      @SWFBeachLife  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I don't blame you! I've considered bringing a bucket or something myself so I can watch them safely for a little while. But the shells call me, so I just say hi and keep on the move. I'm going on a neat excursion tomorrow to look for critters. I hope to get to see a sea horse! I'll be sure to share my adventure.

    I just got back from SW Florida 2 weeks ago. Went to Marco Island and Tigertail beach, then went up to Siesta Key. I've been watching and learning a lot from your channel. Thank you for sharing. You make me want to turn around and come right back down there. I love the beach and all the treasures that await. My favorite time was getting up early and biking to the beach at Marco to see what the low tide had left behind. Most peaceful time of the day. Have a blessed time...

      @SWFBeachLife  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      First, you are so very welcome. I love sharing all the things I'm discovering and learning about the beach and beach life. And I love biking! The first time I took a bike ride on Fort Myers Beach I was in heaven. I'm really looking forward to the slower pace of summer. We get a lot less visitors down here in the summer, so lots of times I'll have the beach to myself. Thank you so much for coming along with me on my beach walks!

    I know what you mean about a crowded beach. I just want to walk along the shore and look at the view or sand to see what shells are there during a quiet time of day. Love going while school is in because that’s when it’s quiet but then sometimes I want to sit and look at the ships when at my favourite beach and love hearing kids laughing and playing.
    Being there during the sunrise is pretty awesome. Florida has such beautiful sunrises and sunsets. The Leopard Crab shell was so cool with those designs!! Very classy looking. The Sea Urchins that you picked up were so different with the length of their spikes and the one with the longer spikes had a thinner body than the short spiked fatter cousin. So beautiful!!
    Thank you for a beautiful, beautiful walk on the beach!! I really enjoyed it!! Have a great week!!☀️☀️😊🐬

The way youre filming and narrating your explorations is really so well done..feels like I'm there and its great when you take time to pan around the beach and the sea waters cos that head down tail up thing really becomes the main event and you can miss out on the beauty of the your surroundings.. beautiful vibes.. great work..🚣‍♀️

I'm 5 miles from the Gulf but will never see it. My niece from Connecticut visited me last year and brought beach sand and gulf water to pour on my feet so I could feel like I was at the beach how sweet of her. I had some beach sand and a few shells on my bed table but the CNA knocked it on the floor and broke it. Sand all over.

    What a nice walk. I feel your pain we were up to the 50's and even hit 60 here in PA let week and then the next week BAM it snowed a few times - What the heck...LOL. I liked seeing the crabs, they were very different. I think it is a great idea that you had to track how much trash you are removing from the beach each walk that you do, thank you for all that you do.

      I heard about that crazy weather up north! I feel bad when people at work (most live in MD and NJ) talk about the miserable weather over the weekend and I just stay quiet since I was at the beach 🌴 It does get wicked hot here, but I'll never have to shovel snow again so I like my trade off!

    I started watching this last night but was too tired to finish (walked about 7 miles yesterday). Had a bunch of comments which of course went away... That's the most shells I've seen at FMB in your videos. A couple of trips ago, Lido Key was full of parchment worm casings too. Really weird. Thanks as always, Sharmon! xxoo

    The pear whelks you found on this day reminded me of hot air balloons - something about the coloring on the shape.

    • @SWFBeachLife
      @SWFBeachLife  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The pear whelks really did have such great color! If you're on the south end of the island it's getting dicey at mid to higher tides. There has been some erosion and there are areas that are impassable at high tide. Be careful!

      It sounds like you love the beach as much as I do! And at this point I will have to admit - I am totally spoiled with shells so I am much pickier than I used to be. And I WISH I had time to make things with the goodies I find but time is a luxury I just don't have these days. I did manage to start a video about a sea shell frame and I hope to share that soon. And not too long ago I shared my shell collection to answer that question, what do you do with your shells? th-cam.com/video/Afy0jl0smpE/w-d-xo.html

      The closest to that " feel" of seashore realm would Be Duluth on Lake Superior, or maybe The Dunes lake shore in Indiana.. Both areas are at least 10 hrs by car..
      Well? Besides just displaying in jars or baskets..hang on walls, or put on book shelves.. I occasionally draw or make watercolor art..but its been a while. See I have too many hobbies that keep me relatively busy. Love them all, but get easily distracted for sure!
      Sometimes I can use small shells in jewelry making.. Maybe in my Dreamcatcher crafting next time...
      So, I binge watch cool channels like yours and other hobbiests/crafters etc. And other special interests..

    Hi Sharmon,
    Even though its was freezing, you found a lot of gorgeous shells!!😍
    That temperature was even for Dutch standards really low. In fact, I would have been wearing my winter coat, hat and gloves if I should go shelling at this low temperature.
    So I can totally understand that you froze your butt of. 🥶
    But the shells are amazing! And I really love the crab shells. They are stunning!
    So thank you for taking us with you on this really cold morning, it still was an amazing beach walk, and I enjoyed every minute of it. (easy for me to say, laying in my warm bed😉)
    I'm wishing you a wonderful week, hopefully with better temperatures, lots of sunshine and great finds.
    Sending you lots of love and a big hug, xoxo ❤️, Ilona

      I am so silly! I have a winter coat with a great hood that probably would have worked out well. I don't know why I didn't think to wear it. I'll be prepared for next time for sure. At least it was worth it getting to see all those creatures before the tide came back in. Luckily it's warming up nicely here so that is probably my last cold walk for a while. I got to see a manatee last weekend RIGHT NEXT to me in the water, so you know it's starting to warm up. I hope you have a lovely week too beach friend! ❤️
