What a day on the water with Dick and Sherri from Texas. We started the trip by seeing dolphin not far from the marina. We then spent the morning exploring the flats looking at live shells and finding some good species that were not alive. Sherri found a live cone shell. I have never seen a live cone on the flats. We then found another. What a treat to see something you have never seen before in the wild. Next it was off to lunch at the Tarpon lodge for lunch. After lunch we went to favorite island number one where we spent the rest of the afternoon. We covered a lot of area on this trip and collected many different species for an unseasonably warm December day.

I wish I were sitting on secret island #1....
Is that a pear whelk in the one picture?
Susan, The frigate birds are my favorite. I will post some cool photos I took recently of my feathered friends for you. Let me know when you will be here in March so I can put in my book.
Kim, It is a pear whelk. It was very cool to see live. It was also close to the live cone. Very cool. You will be sitting at secret spot no number before you know it:)
Very interesting color on that cone. Never seen one so dark!
