Finding Seashells in the Mangroves | Wentletraps & Land Snails #shelling

Double-length episode!! There won't be a part two like usual for a Hervey Bay trip; I underestimated how long it would take me to walk to the mangroves (it was long), and the sweltering heat on top of that, yeah, I was ready to call it a day. I did attempt a short trip to a smaller Hervey Bay beach, but I was shocked to see almost no shells there. Anyway, I think this BIG adventure was more than enough for me - I still can't choose favourites! Thank you so, so much for watching this extra long shelling adventure!!! 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!

Here's some useful links for local shellers: Shells of SE Queensland: https://www.seqshells.com/seqmarine.php (Some listings have multiple variations of a single shell species) Shells of NSW: https://seashellsofnsw.org.au/General... (Check out the illustrations or "plates" to try and match your finds) Links for less local folks... Check out the shell families on Femorale, it's a wonderful resource: http://www.femorale.com/shellphotos/ (but doesn't include location information unless you filter for it, so might lead to mis-identifications) You can join this Facebook group for ID advice, just snap a photo and post it:   / 1490883467609774   (Always take the advice/ID with some scepticism... these people are not experts) You can also try the Conchology website, but it's a little harder to use: https://conchology.be/?t=261 Oh no, they're all scientific names? No worries, just type the scientific name into the Queensland Museum Network database. It might have a common name listed! https://collections.qm.qld.gov.au/obj... (This works for non Australian shells too! Just check/click on the result to see limited info)
