This final seashell is so
colorful, yet so tiny! It is the size of
your fingernail, and what I find most interesting about this type of shell, is
that no two are exactly alike. They even
have differences in their colors. Their
stripes are sometimes wide, sometimes not there at all. My children used to love finding them at the
beach, as they seem to burrow down into the sand, and you have to dig them out.
A friend of mine tried to make soup out of them one year, but OH! The nastiness
of it! The sea gulls and terns like to make a snack of them. I like to draw
them. They are fragile, thin shelled creatures loved by all! I don't know what I will draw next week, but
there is certainly enough out in the world to choose from!
