I thought I might feel foolish if I found out that someone had just thrown them out in the water to be funny. All four of these \u00a0four and a half inch SCALLOPS were found the same time as the other shells and coral on post <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.iloveshelling.com\/blog\/2009\/11\/12\/crazy-shelling-at-lighthouse\/\" target=\"_blank\">Crazy Shelling at Lighthouse<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>. When Clark and I found these, we both looked around for anybody on the beach laughing or looking at us and we both said to each other &#8220;Do you think someone seeded the beach?&#8221;. We&#8217;ve heard of people throwing really nice shells (that are store bought) on the beach just to see the reaction of a sheller getting excited when they pick it up. We call this &#8220;seeding&#8221; the beach.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_209\" style=\"width: 160px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-209\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-209\" title=\"4 inch orange Tellin\" src=\"http:\/\/kirbyrambocollections.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/11\/IMG_1250-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"4 inch orange Tellin\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-209\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">4 inch orange Tellin<\/p><\/div>\n<p>We looked in our shell books to see if they are local but didn&#8217;t find that our local SCALLOPS get that big.
