If you were outside last night in Southwest Florida, you were lucky to witness a gorgeous cool evening that started with colorful overcast September summer sky …<\/p>\n

\"seashells<\/a><\/p>\n

At Lighthouse Beach on Sanibel, there were scattered lines of common white CLAM and SCALLOP shells on the beach and in the surf… but… it was hard to look any further after seeing hundreds of MOON JELLYFISH<\/strong><\/a> (Aurelia aurita).<\/i><\/p>\n

It was a little creepy to see so many in the water and washing up on the beach since I’ve been stung before (CLICK HERE<\/strong><\/a>) but after the initial shock of seeing the MOON JELLY masses and remembering this one doesn’t sting humans, it was so cool to stop and see really how beautiful they are.<\/p>\n

Then I looked up at the sky when I turned the corner to see the Sanibel Pier.<\/p>\n

\"Sunset<\/a><\/p>\n

I found just a few\u00a0minis (a few BUBBLES, juvie CONCHS, juvie OLIVES and one TINTED CANTHARUS) and as I looked up again the sky changed to lavender…<\/p>\n

\"Purple<\/a><\/p>\n

Then it changed to a deeper purple…<\/p>\n

\"Purple<\/a><\/p>\n

Then to orange…\"Yellow<\/a><\/p>\n

Although\u00a0I didn’t collect many shells… the evening was magical with a feast for the eyes.<\/p>\n
