new shell collector

[nettieb]

hi....i just moved to southwest florida and have really started to enjoy foraging for shells every time we have an outing...i get bored with what everyone else is doing and i love to collect...even the smallest, tiniest shells amaze me in their form and color.  since i have just started, please bear with me as i have no knowledge of shells and hope to find that knowledge here.  i will start with a few i found...although they look familiar, i have no idea what genus/species they are.  thank
you so much for this messaging blog and for what you do!
