We found a motherload of beautiful Common Whelk shells when visiting the appropriately named Shellness at the weekend. It’s often hard to find whelk shells which aren’t smashed up so we were delighted with our hoard. Whelks are the largest sea snail 🐌 to be found on UK shores. #whelk #commonwhelk #buccinumundatum #seasnails #shellness #shellnessbeach (at Shellness) https://www.instagram.com/p/CH7lfUDBBfr/?igshid=48k7wi607xb5
