Our trip started at 7am and ended at 2pm. We covered a lot of area in a short amount of time. Debbie and Chuck are beachcombers and lovers of nature. Debbie is a good photographer and has a good eye for her subject matter. I enjoyed learning from her shooting photos. Debbie spotted this red-bellied woodpecker (the bird in the top photo) when we stepped off the boat. The sky was grey so this shot was a little tricky. Debbie captured some great shots. We also found a piece of lions paw. The sky started to turn blue instead of grey as we traveled to another island. Debbie and Chuck love the broken lightning whelks. We found the mother load of these west of secret spot no number. Then it was off to the Tarpon Lodge for a relaxing lunch and conversation. On the way back to Captiva we took pictures of the historic fishouses in the sound. It was a fun day of nature, photography and shelling with Debbie and Chuck.

What is the black triangular thing? It almost looks like a piece o sand dollar? And what is the white thing that looks like a puffer fish?
The first picture is of a red bellied woodpecker, not a flicker.
Ron, You are correct, I was wrong with this identification. Thank you for bringing it to my attention, it will be corrected.
Kim, it is a piece of old Sandollar. The other is the shell of a spider crab.
