Man, I have been slacking on this! I've had quite the busy summer though. I spent a month at my most favoritest place, Topsail Island. During that time I did a lot of shelling.. My main goal was to find a ton of shark teeth.. and I think I succeeded! By the end of my trip and searching all over, I ended up with 942 teeth! There were plenty of small ones but I found some real nice ones too! Besides that, I found tons of broken moon snail shells to add to my bowl of swirlies, scallops, baby ears and I even found a wentletrap which I've always wanted to find! Still no complete scotch bonnet but I found several busted ones.. Im getting closer to a complete one! Here's a look at my finds from the first two weeks of my trip! I had boat access during that time so I was able to find a significant amount more than the last two weeks of my stay.

Sooo many shark teeth. The shark tooth hunting this year was the best its ever been! Significantly better than Wrightsville Beach! |

Shark teeth & sand dollars! |

Not too shabby if I do say so myself!
After my third week and doing the majority of my hunting on the sound side I had some different stuff.. like lots of coral bits, worm shells pieces and some pen shells. Also A LOT of baby ears. I was finding them left and right! Here is a gander at what I got:

These were some of my favorite little finds, I really liked these two worm shells and two baby sea urchin skeletons.. and My Wentletrap, isnt he cute?! | | |
