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

The Sanibel sky turned black with rain clouds and turned white SANDWICH TERNS soaring by. The sky was such a beautiful back drop for them.<\/p>\n

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

There were ROYAL TERNS and LAUGHING GULLS joining in on the fun too.<\/p>\n

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

We didn’t stay on the beach long since that sky looked a little frightful and we weren’t seeing loads of shells other than this cute little LACE MUREX (or lacie), a few WENTLETRAPS and minis.<\/p>\n

Up high on the beach was a wide wrack line of what I call “beach bling”.\u00a0Yes, I made up the phrase! Here’s my definition…. Beach Bling:\u00a0noun<\/em>– (beech-bling) 1. anything that washes up on the beach other than seashells. 2. Collectable and\/or noncollectable debris washed up on any shore.<\/p>\n

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

Doesn’t “Beach Bling” even make PARCHMENT WORMS sound better?<\/p>\n

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

More Beach Bling in the wrack line like BLACK MANGROVE SEEDS which are the little split green lima bean looking things in this next photo…<\/p>\n

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

…and the RED MANGROVE SEED PODS mixed in…<\/p>\n

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

This baby BLUE CRAB shell would fall into this category too…<\/p>\n

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

\u00a0But still the best thing to watch was the beautiful birds soaring and swirling in the stormy sky. They definitely stole the show<\/p>\n
