Does anyone else collect these lucky sea beans? They can float on the ocean currents for years. If you’re lucky enough to find one, you can shake it next to your ear and hear the dried seed rattle inside. Natures beautiful little lucky charm! We found this one this morning on our Shell Key tour.

I’ve found lots of beautiful lightening whelks, but this is the first one like this! We found it on our tour to Egmont Key while snorkeling. After doing a bit of research, I did discover that this is a subspecies of the knobbed whelk called the Kiener’s whelk. The Kiener’s whelk is known for its swelling in the lower body whorl and its extra large recurved spines. It was a beautiful exciting find but the shell already had an owner and was promptly return to the ocean. Captain Betty
