Finding Microshells on the Sand | Red-lined Bubble Shell

- Clouds are lovely, I appreciate clouds... because the alternative was sweltering heat as the high humidity and summer temperatures worked together to make a truly disgusting weekend. I'm glad I got a few goodies from the beach before I needed to stay indoors and drink lots of water! That Red-lined Bubble shell was just awesome, but honestly? These were so, so many amazing mini shells to find this time. Thanks for watching!
Let me know which ones were your favourites ;D and if you enjoyed this and want to see more shell finding videos, I'd appreciate a like or a comment. I read all of them and try to reply when I can. You have no idea how much of a smile you guys put on my face. Thanks everyone!

G'day everyone! Wow, you're actually reading the description? Um, thank you! You will be rewarded with extra content... my Facebook page (link above) is loaded with out-takes and deleted scenes that don't make it into the RUclips videos. Check out the extra funsies over there if you're desperate for more shelling content ;D

I didn't even realise that Point Cartwright and the surrounding beaches had such lovely seashells until I saw "Shellcade Shelling Down Under" - I admired him a lot, and you can check out his videos here:

Absolutely love mini shells. I could happily spend hours just sifting through a pile like that ….what wonderful finds
G'day Beach Girl 👋🏻🏖️ Oh yes, the hours fly by before you notice it!! Do you actually get mini shell piles in Florida? I must admit, I only remember seeing the bigger shells getting picked up in the US shelling videos, but I actually don't have time to watch a tonne of them either 😅 Anyhoo! Thank you so much for watching 🥰
I’m with Susan. The red lined bubble takes the prize!
G'day Diane 👋🏻💖 Hehe, it certainly is a beautiful shell! It's quite rare to find here, so I felt quite lucky to have spotted it! Thank you so much for watching the big adventure today 🥰
Oh goody goody!!! 🤩 A fabulous mini day! 🎉 There is so much variety in the minis. 💜 My favorite today was that beautiful gyre Tritons. I love those shells. 🫶🏼 The red lined bubble shell was amazing too! All of the hinged shells were incredible too. I had a lot of favorites today! Each a piece of artwork. Take it easy in the heat! Use lots of sunscreen. Thank you for another wonderful video Maddie!!! 🥰🥰🥰
G'day Pam 👋🏻💖 Goody goody indeed 🤣I just can't walk past a shell pile like this, or if it do, it is with much reluctance! Yep, 100% minis today; the low tide was too high and murky (from the recent rain runoff) to find anything substantial in the rock pools. Plus, there has been a terrible amount of seafoam in my favourite places on the other side of the lighthouse 🥲. As for the minis, wow, the Purple Gyre Triton was a favourite for you too 🎉 it's been a while since I've found a nice unbroken one of those. This on still has its lovely textures and colours...took a bit of work to get that pebble out of the opening at home, though, but I managed it 😚 The Red-lined Bubble is pretty awesome...it's more white than my first ever one; it was quite interesting to me when I compared them later at home. Oh goodness Pam, thank you; that heat was really horrendous for days after the "clouds parted" on that morning. No amount of sunscreen was going to save me from baking in the high humidity and high temperatures that the heatwave brought. I had to cancel my Sunday plans to go to Hervey Bay; the "feels like" temperature was going to be 100.4°F (38°C) and if I spent 6 hours on that hot beach in the heatwave, well, I really think I would have suffer heatstroke regardless of how much sunscreen and water I took with me 🥵 I feel like I'm playing catch up this week with my shelling! I can't go out on Friday or the weekend because it's going to be extremely busy with Australia Day and the long weekend. Think Independence Day, but everyone is having BBQs and drinking at the beach 😅 in true Aussie style! Wow, I digressed a lot! Thanks for watching 🥰
You know a shell is special when it beats a Cone 😂 The red lined bubble is definitely the winner today!
G'day Susan 👋🏻🏖️ Oh wow, so it beat out the Cone 🤯 Well, I think it just means that I need some better cone shell finds 🤣 I really haven't had a lot of luck with them lately. The Red-lined Bubble Shell was more lucky than I could have hoped for though 😄 As always, thank you so, so much for watching 🥰
Red lined bubble was a super-great find! Def my fav.
G'day Hilary 👋🏻🏖️ I'm glad you liked it too 🤩 it's not often that I see one of those!!! I have found a few broken fragments over the last year or so, but I never kept of showed them...I guess I was waiting for something like this?? It was worth the wait 😁 Thanks for watching 🥰
Wow ! What a diverse collection of finds, brilliant. Love that Purple Gyre.
G'day Darren 👋🏻🏖️ There certainly was a lot of different shapes and coloured in the shell pile today - so many amazing minis!! It's a bit different than the minis and shell piles that I've seen up where you are 😉 next time I see you on the beach, I'll try to remember to have a little jar of mini shells for you, if you want it 😊 Thank you so much for watching 🥰
O my goodness. How many beautiful tiny shells 🐚 😍.
G'day Nikoleta 👋🏻💖 It was a great day for the minis!! The water was too high and murky to check the rock pools, so I'm glad that I could find a bunch of small shells on the shore this time 🤩 Thanks for watching 🥰
@@SandCoffeeRocks You're welcome, Maddie 🫠.
Appreciate your id of the bird cardita, Maddie...and woohoo on the red-lined bubble!
G'day Jas 👋🏻💖 Oh, I'm glad you liked the ID for the Bird Cardita 😲 it may have another English name, but this was the most literal translation of its scientific name, and it is easy to say, so I went with it 😁 There are other species of Cardia that look quite similar to this one; I can find a larger but similar looking shell at Hervey Bay sometimes (but I always forget the name of it 😅). The Red-lined Bubble Shell is just awesome, and a rare one for me to see here! The live animal is really amazing too if you ever search for it on Google; the snail is a bright light blue; it almost looks like it's glowing! It's amazing contrast with its red and white shell. As always Jasmene, thank you so much for watching 🥰
I’d love to go through the shell pile. So many amazing minis. Always liked the cowries, but would have to say that the favourites are the moon snail types.
G'day Belix 👋🏻🏖️ It's so much fun to look through a shell pile like this...it's been a while since a sizeable one washed up, but this one is still pretty large! When the low tides are high, it pushes small shells to the shore like this; it's just the best. Do you also get minis washed ashore like this? The Moon Snails were just fabulous this time 🤩 Thank you so much for watching 🥰
Loving all those sweet shells. That red lined paper bubble took the day. 😂 I have to give a shout out to my oyster family. Loved the little threaded looking drill/auger. The Wentletrap witch shines again!!!! 😂 Thanks Maddie for another fun video. I know how much work that has to be staging all those little shells. Just know it's very appropriated all your hard work. Have an awesome rest of the week. Sending warm 40° hugs from Idaho 😂 finally not feeling so frozen.
what do you do with all the shells just wondering i just recently came across your page
G'day Roberta 👋🏻💖 It really is an amazing bubble shell!! I can't believe I was able to get a second one...the last one was well over a year ago now. Oh wow, the oyster and screw-thread turret also got a special mention today too! I'm so glad that you enjoyed the microshelling episode 😉 there was a lot of different shells this time! Hahah Roberta, that is not warm at all!! But It's certainly heaps better than last week! Thank you so much for watching 🥰
G'day TIffany 👋🏻🐚 Good question; I put my favourites into my shell cabinet - I just organised it a few months ago and you can see it here: ruclips.net/video/vtTtFGCOGA8/видео.html and it's really cool!! For the other shells, I have to put away, or I will send them to friends…I must have given away at least a thousand to various friends over Christmas! I don't sell them though, because I've decided to leave that to the professionals elsewhere... I don't really have a lot of spare shells around the house anymore, I usually only take the best shells home. Thanks for watching 🥰
Hi Maddie!! This shell hunt was FANTASTIC!! So fantastic that the only one I remember is the Purple Gyre Triton, because it was my favorite 😍 They were all so cute that I can’t choose anymore! So I guess they’ll all have to be winners this time! I’m good with that.. Take Care!! TTFN 👋🏼 ❤
G'day Mimi 👋🏻💖 This was a lovely little adventure, even if it wasn't a huge one in the end 😉 that Purple Gyre Triton was super lovely; I really wish they were more common to see here! As you said, there was a heap of cuties in this one 🤩 Thanks again for watching, and for all of your beautiful comments 🥰
So many great minis, I have already watched the video twice, haha. The red-lined bubble is certainly a lovely and exciting find. The donkey cowries still have my heart, though, so it is my favourite today. Gosh I wish I could reach thru my TV screen and put my hands in those shell piles. 💙
G'day Oceanluvn Gal 👋🏻🏖️💖 Oh wow, thank you for watching it twice 😲 I'm so glad that you enjoyed it enough to do so 😁! The Red-lined Bubble certainly made me cry out in joy, but sometimes the heart wants what the heart wants, and that Donkey was pretty fabulous as well 😉 The shell piles are pretty fun to run your hands through; it feels more gentle than pebbles, but coarser than sand. A little more wet too, with an odd but not unpleasant smell - the beach always has its own kind of briney funk around the rock pools 😅 it's all part of the tactile, smellovision experience, coming to you in 2157 in RUclips's version 49.0 update 🤣 sorry, I'll show myself out. Thanks for watching 🥰
@@SandCoffeeRocks 😅 Love it! I best start saving for the tactile smellovision.
Hi Maddie, Sitting at a hospital with Bob and Linny. Having tests and may be admittedl. Anyway, wow the monies. My favorite Red Lined Bubble. Thank you. Love, Trudy. Stay cool. Snow finally melting.
Oh my goodness Trudy, that's terrible 😨!! I hope that Bob can pull through with good results on the tests; I know he hasn't been able to start the immunotherapy again until his numbers come down. At least the doctors are on top of things, and are keeping a watchful eye on his condition. I'm glad the micro shelling could give you a distraction while you're at the hospital. Take care of yourself as well ❤️
I love when you do the mini shelling...I always pause the video to see how many I can find...lol....I love the Red-lined Bubble shell and the Purple Gyre Triton and the Variegated Sundial was great as well. Thanks for another great shelling adventure...hugs from Ontario, Canada......Wanda
G'day Wanda 👋🏻💖 I'm always surprised by how much I like the mini shelling...when I first started shelling, I didn't do it because I didn't think I'd like how intense it is on the eyes, but it's actually very zen...and the small shell species are just as beautiful and sometimes even rarer than the ones in the rock pools! I hope you were able to see some shells that I missed, though it can be quite a different experience looking through the piles in a video 🤔 Wow, I think you chose the best ones as the favourites!! I should have given a mention to that Variegated Sundial, it's been a while since I've found one and it is just so lovely 😍 but I managed to pick up just about ever other shell instead of that one at the ending outro 😅 the Gyre Triton and Red-lined Bubble Shell really stood out to me too 🐚 Thank you so, so much for watching 🥰
@@SandCoffeeRocks Thanks Maddie....it's lovely that you always find time to reply to comments. Have a great day my friend !!
@@craftsandcards I try my best, though often I'm days late 🤣 today must be a good day 😁
Hi Maddie, just sitting in one spot you can see the whole shell universe. Very nice mini shells. I don’t know how long you were there but I bet hours go by without you noticing.
It’s warmed up here a bit in the UK but still very windy - no rude remarks about eating beans please😂.
Love that sundial shell!
Wow you even did a display with the minis, very nice. ❤xxx
G'day Alison 👋🏻💖 Haha, it does feel a bit like being orbited by a shell Milky Way or something 🤣 the mini shells were just wonderful, I think I went to this pile a few times over several trips; it didn't disappoint 😁 and yeah, the hours evaporate before I know it. That Sundial was such a nice one, definitely one of my best Variegated Sundial shells; I wish I gave it a special mention.
Hahaha, no bean joke, I promise 😂 I'm glad the weather is getting a little warmer for you, but will it last?? Feb is the hottest month here in Australia. Is it the coldest month for you over there?
As always Alison, thank you for watching another big adventure 🥰
Hi Maddie, I lost track of the names of my favorites. There were so many lovely shells. I can see how you could lose time just looking thru these large shell piles. Happy hunting 😊🐚🐌🐕🇺🇲
G'day Guadalupe 👋🏻💖 Oh wow, it was a big day, so yes, it's easy to lose track of which ones I picked up. Sometimes I forget what I have until I put them out for a shell display at the end 🤣 I'm so glad you enjoyed seeing the minis today 😁 Thanks for watching 🥰
Loved the red lined paper bubble,and the henged " leafy oyster"!!!!!. Thought we'd have to swim to Australia to tap you on the back when you found the red lined bubble 😅. Can't say as I blame you!!!!!
G'day Judi 👋🏻💖 Hmm, after brushing up on my Leafy Oyster research, I feel more confident that this hinged shell was indeed a Leafy Oyster 😲 it's sometimes hard for me to tell when they have so much variation in how their curves and textures look 😅 Haha, I can only imagine that it would be a long swim for you, Judi, even if you lived "close-by" in Indonesia 🤣 we're a bit off the beaten track over here! I know you joke 😉 but yes, I was quite pleased to find that Red-lined Bubble Shell this time time; I was quite a bit more excited about it than the other finds that day 😂 Thank you so much for watching 🥰
Wow that red lined bubble absolutely Stunning 😍🐚, i always do love the fabulous minis because they have so much colour ❤, also i just noticed a yellow tinted cowrie but its fine you found another one 😅
G'day Amjad 👋🏻🐙 Oh my goodness, that Red-lined Bubble Shell made the whole trip worth it!! The minis from here just make me happy; it's so much fun to scour the shell piles and wracklines to find the best (and rarest) ones! Oh oops, missed a Yellow-tinted Cowrie 🤣 Ahh well, I usually only pick up the most lovely ones of those these days 😉 hopefully the one missed wasn't super shiny?? You must have eagle eyes! Thanks for watching 🥰
Love the mini’s! ❤
G'day Kim 👋🏻🐚 The little shells really capture my attention 😉 I'm glad you like them too! Thank you so much for watching 🥰
I don't have a real favorite today because of too many that I like a lot. Probably the Gyer triton is closest to my favorite today,but I'd like to give a shout out to the pheasant shells! They really are pretty❤ Don't have a heat stroke down there Mattie, I'm trying to avoid frostbite 😂
G'day Denise 👋🏻💖 Hehe, it really was a day where the shells were so interesting and numerous that they could easily pass up by. Sometimes I forget what I've found until I put them all out at the end 🤣🐚 The Gyre Triton was just lovely this time; it's not often I find them intact and in such nice condition 🤩 Oh goodness, and the Pheasant shells get a shout out too?! Yes, they deserve lots of love; they are just so adorable. Please stay safe Denise, I can't imagine ever being so cold that I'd be at risk of getting frostbite 🥶 wow, that's cold!! Thanks for watching 🥰
Purple triton
G'day Tammy 👋🏻🐚 Hehe, the lucky last was your favourite; I'm glad I hung around to find it 😁 Thanks for watching the big adventure today 🥰
wow what amazing finds!😍 wish i was at point cartwright beach! love the lined paper bubble but my favorite has to be the variegated sundial! wentletrap was also very beautiful just found two of them the other day here in nz. great finds maddie!
G'day B2O3 👋🏻🏖️ Point Cartwright is such a stunning place; the biodiversity is amazing 🤩 But gosh, this is just one place in Australia with amazing shells...I haven't even been to Western Australia yet! Oh wow, I guess you know your shells better than I thought, I probably didn't need to direct you to the NZ shell box 😅 So Lamellose Wentletraps also pop up in New Zealand 😍 very cool!! Thank you so much for watching 🥰
yes there are so many different shells on cartwright beach! although I found 2 wentletraps in smokehouse bay, they weren't Gyroscala lamellosa they were Epitonium minorum and Cirsotrema zelebori, and very small!
Ouhhhh myyyyy...
They are soooooo freaking cuteeeeeeee......
So hard to choose the most fav today
But.... I'll go with the smallest moon snail I've ever seen in my life 😍 06:25
Thank you for a great video Maddie ❤🎉
G'day Nelly 👋🏻💖 Haha, do you ever get mini shell piles where you go shelling? It's actually quite fun to look through them all!
Oh wow, so the super mini moon snail is the favourite this time! I love finding the Chevron Sand Snails 🐌 their yellow and brown patterns are just so interesting! As always Nelly, thank you so much for watching 🥰
@@SandCoffeeRocks in few of my shelling adventures,i found mini shell piles,but i only found dove snails and some other mini mini mini,but never find any super cute mini moon snail 😩😩😩😩😭😭😭😭
@@nellyjune9828 Aww no Nelly, don't give up 🤔 if you find moon snails at your best, then you're bound to find small baby ones someday too!! The Dove Shells are probably super adorable 😉 they're so colourful!
@@SandCoffeeRocks yoshh,i wish i can find it in my next adventure,
Dove snails also cute actually,
😍
What’s up Maddie!!!! How are you today hun? Look forward to todays shelling adventure!
G’day Lindsay 👋🏻💖 Today’s a good day - it’s not bloody hot anymore 🤣 we’ve got some cloud cover and wind, so the temperature dropped to a much more manageable level…maybe I’ll go out shelling again today 😂 How are you doing today? I hope you enjoyed the shelling adventure; it was 100% minis this time because I can’t walk past a shell pile like this! Hope you’re well 🥰
I am doing well hun. Thanks for asking. I love when you pick up minis. The variety is awesome and we get to see so many different and unique shells. I am. Lad the weather eased up for you. I can imagine it makes your shelling adventures much easier to do. Have a great day! 🐚🦪❤
Morning Maddie, sorry I haven't been around lately but I've been s oi cl. I have two favorites today and they are #1 has to be the Red line buddle❤❤ and #2 is that lovely wentletrap. Hope you and ninja are doing great, all the fur baby's are doing great. Have a great day and stay safe out there.
Kayle I said to Bob, where is Kayle? Happy to see your comment. Know you are ok. Bob bad shape but doing our best. Take care. TRUDY
@@trudymcewen9801 My real name is sheila. Plz tell bob thought he is in my thoughts always♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏🙏🙏
G'day Sheila 👋🏻💖 Oh my goodness, that's terrible!!! Just like Trudy, I was wondering if everything was ok, but I just figured that maybe you were feeling a slump after Christmas and New Year's - it certainly took me a while to find my groove again. I didn't realize you were sick, I hope it's not too serious and that you will recover soon. Please feel better, Sheila! I'm glad the shells today could distract you for a few minutes 🐚 there was a lot of fun finds to see; the Wentletrap and Bubble Shell were just the best this time. Give extra cuddles to all of the fur babies from me and Ninja 🐈😺🐈😺🥰
@@SandCoffeeRocks I'm good, to was that really bad cold that is hitting everyone had in the states. I'm going to catch up on the video's I missed.
@@kaylecotton5301 Ahh, is it that RSV I keep hearing about? I think you guys scared us in Australia with reports about it; the government just started rolling out free RSV vaccines for people over 60. I can't convince my dad to get any more jabs ever though 😅 I'd get a freebie if I could!! Sorry, I digress. I hope you're well and truly on the mend now 🙏🏻
Shell at 4.37 minute mark is Oppomorus purpureocinctus (Preston, 1909)
G'day Adrian 👋🏻🏖️ Wow, that looks a lot more accurate than my guess of a juvenile Australian Spindle Whelk! I didn't expect to be right, but still, it's awesome to have the accurate name now! Thank you so much!! Huh, I can't really find the English name for this one...it's not even listed on my favourite Queensland Museum Network catalogue of shells 😲 I guess when they're this small, the shells sometimes get overlooked. For my later reference, I think I will translate the Latin name and go with Purple-ringed Whelk for this one. Thank you so much, Adrian 🥰
Or Purple-ringed Drupe? Rock Shell? Anyway 😅
