Summer Nature Navigators | LIVE with Sanibel Sea School / SCCF ๐ŸŒŠ

Sanibel Sea School Director Shannon Rivard shows off some of the wildlife you can find on Sanibel's beaches including Conquinas (Donax veriabilis). They are abundant in the "swash zone" (where the waves break!).

She also shows us the egg casing for sea snails, including one that is likely from a Lightning Whelk! This one is dried out and hatched, but if you ever find one that is still squishy, you can place it safely back into the water and dig it into the sand so it doesn't wash ashore again.

Remember to keep a distance from any nests, including turtles and shore birds!
