"A shellbag and a good attitude" What else does one need?! 😂

I just LOVE your narration of your videos! You have such a unique, clear voice that I can see/hear your excitement! It just makes me smile...😊

One of my favorite things to hear…”Hellooooo beach friends”. Thanks for another fantastic video! 😊

Dear Sharmon, Your “Well Hellooooooo Beach Friends” just makes my Sunday’s! I love my weekly visit with you. Transports me right from Utah to Florida. You had a spectacular haul this week……my dream shell is a Florida Fighting Conch like the two butterscotch/ caramel/orange-yellow ones you found today. Love the albino and baby’s ear as well. Thanks again, for taking us along….for your splendid narration and wealth of information! Marilyn

What I love about your channel is you never take the shells for granted-they’re always gorgeous and you always appreciate what the sea brings you. ❤

I giggle every Sunday during the intro Sharmon.. that lil critter that comes outta his shell swingin... like hey hooman put be back in yhe water cracks me up...

I just love the way you lay out your scores at the end. KEWL to see your albino!

Could it be the reason you're finding so many shells is that there are so few tourists? There would have been a number of people on the beach shelling with you if things were normal. I seem to remember after coming down to Sanibel for years that I found more Pear Whelks during the summer months. What a great albino find! Congratulations! 😊

The shell basket from your shop gives me so much joy. I love the small shells and the variety you selected. My family was amazed that I could identify so many (due to weekly shelling with you). Thank you!

Congratulations on finding the albino cockle and the lovely baby ear! Your haul, as always, was very impressive especially during the summer season. Really liked all the variety in your finds. I gotta admit, those crown conchs are always so impressive looking to me.Thanks so much for allowing us to live vicarously through your beach trips!

Oh gosh, those pear whelks! ❤️

Thanks for the walk at Fort Myers....I miss that area so much. Thanks for beach time too !!!

Lots of lovely shells today Sharmon, thank you!

Hello, Sharmon! ( : Sooo happy to see you! Fav day, Sunday! ( : Yayyyyyyy! ( : Let's go to the beach! Woo hoo! ( : What a great trip to the beach! Thanks so much for for taking us, sweetie! Soooo many great shells! ( ;

Such wonderful treasures today! Love when you are so excited about your finds.

Beautiful haul!

What a fabulous haul! I loved the albino giant cockle too. Thank you for continuing to take trash off the beach too. Great video, I am looking forward to seeing Lovers Key next week.

Omg I need some south fmb treasure!! Love all the hinged esp the albino cockles... my favorite!!!!! Hugs

Happy sunday!! I’ve been loving fort myers beach lately. i’ve found so many goodies the last few weeks 🥰

I love watching Sunday videos right before bed. ❤ so relaxing

Hello Beach Angel! I'm so glad to see you tonight. It's been a bad week and I needed some of your joy! Sounds like you've got it to spare! Hi everybody! Glad you're here, too! That burgundy scallop is gorgeous! I'd hate to see the baby that lost that ear! Big baby! I like those pink tellins. Oh, you saved a bare foot from stepping on that jewelbox! That would REALLY hurt, especially if the sharp spine broke off in someone's foot! That poor little used-to-be tree! It looks so sad, but if I had to die anywhere, the beach is as good as anywhere! That dark lightning whelk is so pointed! I never saw one that sharp before! That's a butterscotch colored fighting conch! Wasn't there a tropical storm that churned up the Southern Gulf a little while ago and then went out? Maybe that would account for the extra special shelling...just thinking. Wow!🎉 Hurray on you for the albino cockles! Great sand dollars, too! What a great day you had, Sharmon! The Creator really wanted you to have your fill of shells today! (If that's even possible for a beach angel!) Good idea to check the upper rack line! That sure paid off! An urchin! Hurray! Oh, I do love to hear the laughter of angels! Yours washed over me like a warm wave, comforting my aching soul. A dear friend and "brother" is getting ready to leave this place and my heart is sore for him. His wife, who is my bestest friend, left us at the start of the pandemic and he has been separated from her too long. His brave heart just can't go on for much longer. I'll miss him, but we'll all be together before long. It's almost time to fly away Home! Oh, that is a really beautiful pear whelk! Hard hearted Hannah, you just want to not have to sleep in a tree for all the shells on the bed! Skimmers are so cool! I miss the seabirds so much! Babies are so cute when they start running around on their tiny legs and too big feet! Gorgeous shells today, darling! You're right about the white of the albino shells, it really is a special shade of white. Sorry, Procol Harum! 😂 Much love to everyone from rainy, stormy Tennessee!

Hi beach friend. Thanks for taking us along. What a haul. Loved the video 😊

I had a Big saltwater aquarium with that broken up shell and sand bottom in it and the fish really liked picking up the pieces with their mouths and moving it around the tank.

Thank you for being such an awesome ambassador for SW Florida, and for encouraging us to come back to the beaches. Your auctions have also been pretty amazing. Thank you for ALL you do Sharmon. I love your respect for nature - collecting the garbage.and making sure you never take anything that’s living! You are VERY appreciated! Your videos are healing - almost as good as being on the beach myself!

I hope they keep showing up so when I’m there this winter I can find a lot of shells

Commenting again. LOL: I love the black skimmers too! I saw them down in Cape May NJ. There were a whole bunch of them. And the thing that stood out to me was that they would all face the same direction. It was really cool. I had never seen them before. They are so cool looking! Also, I LOVE those pear whelks!!!

I was amazed to find out why a jingle is called a jingle. When you shake it it makes a noise!

Alot of temperature changes this year could be the culprit

I am always tickled at your reaction to finding a baby's ear. Since I live in Tennessee, my closest beaches are in N & S Carolina. I find tons of baby's ears, especially on Folly & Myrtle. Going to Destin with friends next week and hoping the shelling is decent. Still longing for the SWF Beach experience! Maybe someday soon. Meanwhile, I look forward to your videos every Sunday. Happy shelling!

That baby's ear!!! i don't know if you follow Virtual Shelling Network, but she just posted a video and found an albino lightning whelk! It was occupied, so she couldn't take it, but it was really cool to see!

Beautiful beach walk..thank you !!

Thank you for my weekly dose of beachy goodness! It was a beautiful, if brief, vacation to SWF in the middle of my Michigan summer. Such fun! Thanks for sharing! ❤️

It’s incredible that you were able to find so many amazing shells this time of year! What a wonderful trip to the beach!

Beautiful shells. Sometimes it’s hard to watch knowing I won’t be able to come back until next year. But it is so cool to look at all the shells with you and see what I can spot. You get so excited when you find one. I feel that same excitement too. Thanks for being there and doing what you do!!

That first crown conch!!! 😍

Great finds for any season, this week! Thank you for pointing out that we need to skirt around the birds on the beach. It's their home -- we're the guests! I'm with you on loving skimmers. They're a little easier to disturb than gulls or even terns, so when you see skimmers, you know we're doing a good job of respecting the critters on the beach. I'm pretty sure they are the only bird with that longer lower bill, which is just so cool. When they're skimming, the upper beak stays above the water, and the lower beak dips below, almost looking like they are unzipping the surface of the water. Of course, when they run into a little fish, they snap it right up. :-)

I’m happy you got off the beach safely, but I also can understand wanting to pick up just one more shell. Gorgeous! Thank you!! ❤️🐚

Oh, hello, sweet beach comber. Today has been hard. My Uncle Doyle was buried this afternoon. Seeing your new video was a much needed breath of ocean air. God bless.🐚

The little rose peddles are so precious!! Just my favorite, the cooler is just amazing! Soooo many beautiful shells! Thanks for sharing!

Wow, what beautiful shells today. The albino cockle was awesome, the Florida fighting conck, the pear whelkes wow they have a lot of color to them, sandollars are just beautiful and big, lighting whelkes are just so amazing, the babies ear was so big and beautiful, buttercups are very nice, the olives are very nice, banned tulips are beautiful, crowned conks have amazing colors to them. Wow, the sea urchin is always so interesting to me. All the shells just amaze me because I am nowhere near an ocean. I would love to spend a week shelling in all the different places I could. Love to see the live critters. That always excites me, along with seeing that they block off where the turtle nests are, and all the different birds and dolphins 🐬. I would also take as much trash off the beaches as I could. I pick up trash in our wooded areas. Some people where I am from, they just don't care. Thank you for a wonderful shelling video. I hope you have a wonderful day and week.

I finally get to come to Fla. this coming week. Staying in Naples, I'm so excited.

P.S. female horseshoe crabs are bigger than the males. Males have what looks like a boxing glove. thanks for sharing your find - I wasn't able to flip them this year 😞

Wowser ! What a haul ! !

Such a nice little walk again! Love it.❤😊

Your videos are such a joy for those of us that are “inland” dwellers. We are looking forward to our upcoming trip. Thanks for bringing the beach to us when we are away. These videos always put a smile on my face and help me to have a good day. All the best to you. ( glad you are weather conscious, I know it can change quickly ) Have a great day everyone !

Fabulous haul! I’m not gonna lie, I do love the baby ears!

I wonder if all the algae that has been making it's way to the Gulf and Atlantic is somehow killing some shells at a time they don't normally die.

Crown Conchs looking so clean this time 😊

I absolutely love every single one of your videos!

Great day, loved all the shells but the rose petal talons are beautiful and can't wait to make some flowers with them one day, thank you as always for sharing, have a great week!!

Hi Sharmon! Another fun Sunday! Love the giant albino cockle. You had a great shelling day. I only have 2 albino. A nutmeg and whelk from last trip down. I love them. Have a shelltastic week. Hugs!

What a great find, your albino cockle! I recently became the owner of 30# of shells (to add to the 27# I brought home from France recently!), apparently from your area. (A bargain at a garage sale for $10!!) Included: lots of Florida fighting conches, lots of lettered olives, a few crown conches, calico clams, a good number of shark eyes, probably 100 small shark teeth, lots of drills (?), some worms, a buttercup lucine, some spiny jewel boxes, and others. And I recognized them because of your wonderful videos!! The trip I had reserved for Sanibel last fall was also wiped out by the hurricane, but now I still have shells. Thank you for all your videos...I hadn't realized you'd taught me so much!

Fantastic haul, thank you for sharing!

Great haul despite it being summer time. Gorgeous sea shell finds. Glad your being careful when there is lightning in the area.

Dear Sharmon, Congratulations on finding that Albino Giant Atlantic Cockle! Yay!! I'm so happy for you! What a fantastic find. 😍 I know for sure you will find your albino Olive! Your eagle eyes will find it. And what a great haul. So many beautiful shells in summertime! It really makes you wonder why they are here in such abundance. Maybe also the result of El Niño? I was happy you went off the beach, even though the shells kept coming. That thunderstorm looked nasty. I hope you have a wonderful week, filled with sunshine and amazing finds! Sending you lots of love and, of course, a big hug! xoxo ❤, Ilona

Beautiful haul!! Thanks for all your efforts!!

Thank you for another wonderful shelling video! Never had heard of a "fallen angel wing!" You taught me something new!

Just curious, I remember the video where you explained the reason for better shelling in the winter, due to more wind and winter storms etc. I’m wondering if it’s the same on the east coast since they have bigger waves all the time, is it better over there in the winter too? Just think… if the summer shelling has been this good, imagine how awesome winter shelling might be!

Great walk today. Oddly, an unpredicted thundering started as I was watching you. What amazing things you found.

I’m bringing my 8 year old granddaughter to Honeymoon Island on the 29th and we’ll be in Fort Meyers on the 31st…we are so excited! I am trying to learn the names and where to take her. Best I can tell….There will be low tide on Sanibel on the evening of the 31st. I’m addicted to your videos. Thank you so much!

Hi Sharmon! What a great haul of shells! I'm thrilled for your albino giant cockle shell find. I love all the beach bowls. I think they are wonderful. Also was thrilled with the beautiful crown conchs and all the other beauties. Thanks so much for sharing your trip with us. Boy that T-storm building up looked ominous. I'll bet there was a great lightning show to boot after you got home. Have a blessed week.

Thanks so much for FtMyers! I'll be there next month from Ohio. Can't wait to shell!

Lovely as usual. The pear whelks look so fragile, I’m always afraid they will crumble in your hands. Lots of varieties today too, lucky you and I love the birds too,got to help the little guys. Stay safe xx

Let's go to the beach 🎉 the best expression ever !!

Glad you made it back before you got caught in the rain

Maybe there are more shells because there aren't as many tourists there to pick them up. I would so love to be there, but I'm waiting for one of my favorite resorts to re-open on Sanibel. Hope to come next year.

Wow and wow so many beautiful treasures!! So happy for you to find your albino .. oh happy day 🎉❤

love all the colors

Yeah I was in Fort Myers 1 week ago today. That seaweed was awful & it stinks. There was also these flying Nats that bite so lot's of bug spray. I injoy Fort Myers & Sanibel. I got to see 2 manatees & there baby's so exciting. Love Love can't wait to go back.

Amazing as always!!! ❤ I love all the shells but I really can't wait to find a beach bowl! I think they are so beautiful!

Another beautiful video with wonderful shells 🐚 🥰. Congratulations .

I love the little turtle. ❤

Ima land locked Sr in dry dry Utah that never made it to Fla. I love love going to the beach with you. I get to go looking for wonderful stuff ,get educated and get all the fun but no sun burn but, sand in between my toes. Thank you and much love 💗 from a beach lover in the next life❤❤❤❤

Congratulations. Albino 🎉🎉🎉. Great trip thanks you 🤩🤩🤩💖💖

Wow as always. I want to come to that side so bad. Always watching to see what's best. This would have been a great haul for me. "One day"

I have never been able to visit Florida to shell in person so I really appreciate your beautiful videos. I started a small Florida shell collection by visiting thrift stores here (Prince Edward Island, Canada) and now I can picture how these shells might have looked when people collected them on the beach. I am hoping to add an alphabet cone to my collection one day and some of those gorgeous rose petal tellins that I only seem to find glued to random things.

I love the Skimmers and your videos! Babies flatten out in & blend in with sand & people sometimes step on them. Just went to lovers old gazebo area to new pass had some good 🐚 take care

Wow what a satisfying adventure on this one!! You mustve been sooo excited ❤🎉

Oh my nerves....you know I love you but I am absolutely phobic about lightning....I actually got nauseous as you meandered off the beach?😢 loved your video as always and great finds...❣️🦋❣️🐚🐚🐚🌊🌈🥰

Well here's my theory: all the beautiful shells in my area are being sucked out into the Gulf from all the onshore wind and making their way down the coast to your area.😂 Great finds for FMB! I've only found a single albino GAC and only 1 ever so congrats on that! Thanks Sharmon! Oh and BTW on my trip up north I hooked up with my other favorite KZfaqrs from Salty Reflections! Fun! xxoo

Oh my goodness, the rose ones, man oh man

Thank you for sharing the tips with the audience about protecting the native creatures.

How did I miss this? I want all the clams! ❤😂

11:49 my new favorite, the Crown Conch ❤

Wow that albino was so cool looking ! So happy for you finding it ! It turned out to be a really good shelling day regardless of the storm moving in ! Thanks !

beautiful variety of shells!!

Amazing finds 🐚

Heavenly Father washed back the sand just for you to pick up each little treasure ❤

Could it be the reason you're finding so many shells is because of the lack of tourists? The beach, at this time of year, normally would have had a number of people shell hunting at the same time with you, or been out at dawn collecting as well. In the years I've been coming down to Sanibel, I believe that I found more Pear Whelks in the summer months. What a fantastic albino find for you! Congratulations 😊

What a great shelling day!!! Fantastic specimens. 🌻🐌🐚🐕🥰

Beautiful finds!! I wonder if the great shelling this summer has anything to do with the fact that the gulf/Atlantic water is the warmest on record this year.. I've had amazing luck on Sanibel and Marco this summer as well. Thank you for your videos and always staying positive, I learn something new every week 😄

What awesome finds! Woohoo!

Love your info my friend! ❤

What a great haul!!! How fun was that!! I was thinking when you walked by the pond, do you get alligators in those little ponds? Hope you have a good week. See you Sunday!! XOXO

Beautiful, beautiful shells😊😊😊

Great colors on the Crowns--even the ones that were in the upper wrack line! Great Baby's Ear (so big!), and Pear Whelks looked perfect; big Lightning Whelks, too! I am curious to know if you will bleach the albino Atlantic Cockle and lose the hinge, or maintain the hinge and possibly leave a part of the shell a little discolored? What is your preference? Either way, a great find, and a fun video. TY!

You should've kept the horseshoe crab skeleton, you could have put it with your seahorses!

How wonderful

it's so sad, our beach on neopolitan is almost non-existent now after the hurricane.

That sure is a fantastic albino find! Perhaps an albino olive is the only thing that could top it? (I've yet to see a photo of a true albino lettered olive). Fun finds!
