Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow; don't walk behind me, I may not lead; walk beside me, and just be my friend.

It is of interest to note that while some dolphins are reported to have learned English -- up to fifty words used in correct context -- no human being has been reported to have learned dolphinese.

Candice Night Sea Glass On the Shores of a Fantasy World

A musical album full of magic. It's full of fantasy and dreams. It's as if you're standing on the shore. In some fairytale fantasy kingdom. Full of magic and wonder. And before you is the great ocean. Full of mysteries. And seashells lie on the sand. Like remnants of the past.

A wee selection of shells found on Uisken beach over the past two weeks 😊

DEATH TO NEPTUNE IS LIFE TO THE REPUBLIC
#Seashells collected at the beach. Did you know that "The Shell Seekers", the novel that made Rosamunde Pilcher famous, is not about seeking shells at the beach at all? The book is about a painting named "The Shell Seekers" which was inherited by the protagonist from her father, and her children want to sell it. More a corny story about family and inheritance than about nature.

She sells sea shells on the sea shore. Apparently, the old tongue twister is still as relevant today as ever, having just learned that the smaller Truncate Donax below the cockle (if Google Lens is to be believed) can fetch between 2 and 4 USD!
These two were found cosying up to each other on Camber Sands beach at low tide.
