This is one of four, two gallon jars that I filled with shells.... all found while Shelling on the Gulf of Mexico. This one is filled mostly with Giant Cockle Shells. The secluded Beach that morning was filled with Giant Cockle Shells.... far too many to carry, even in my shelling net-bags. Also on the Beach were what I was told were Ocean Slugs.. ICK... they looked like a mass of livers that oozed purple liquid. It proves that with the beauty comes a little ugly! :o)
