yes.. Cerions , but where does Cerion nanus come from? Each Cerion species has a type locality... sometime 1 species is restricted to a very limited area..

An intriguing gathering of several Cerion specimens. All similar in size—same age? Same clutch? Why no juveniles? Natural grouping behavior? #molluskmonday #molluscmonday #gastropods snail

The Ocellate Cowrie (Naria ocellata) is a beautiful little shell covered with many tiny 'eyes'. It is relatively common in South India and Sri Lanka.

A large group of small, glossy cowrie shells on a white background. Each is beige/brown in colour with many white spots. Some of these have a smaller dark spot within them giving the appearance of tiny eyes.

Spotted in Mazatlán, Mexico, these fascinating chitons are marine mollusks. Composed of eight durable dorsal plates, they cling to rocks with an almost indestructible grip, making them nearly impossible to dislodge. A true marvel of nature’s design!🌊📸

So excited about #MolluscMonday decided to post another! The blue dragon sea slug (Glaucus atlanticus) is as stunning as it is dangerous. It preys on venomous jellyfish like Portuguese man o' wars, storing their stingers for its own defense. #marinelife

Pusula radians (Lamarck, 1810)
Playa Brujas, Mazatlán, Sinaloa, Mexico. 13 - 21.1 mm 🌊
Found in the drift line at low tide. The shell is slightly glossy with a dark brown blotch, raised lines, and pustules. It might be confused with Pusula solandri. 🐚

🌊🐉 Glaucus atlanticus, also known as blue dragons, which we encountered at low tide on the intertidal shore. These cute little sea slugs are actually very venomous, so don’t be fooled by their appearance!⚠️

Le sapin est terminé ! Merci à mon petit fils qui m'a bien aidé à le decorer et à choisir les ornements! J'ai de bon souvenirs des Noël de mon enfance. J'espère qu'il en sera de même pour lui!🎄❤️

An origami tarantula I designed in 2020. Folded by me from one uncut square of paper.
An update is in the works.

Some of my artistic cards in origami and collage, inspired by traditional models, combining various papers and cardboards, several of which are recycled. Each card is unique, handmade, and comes with a matching envelope.🐸 🐷 "Why not frame them?"🖼️

I've been practicing origami since I was 4 years old. Lately, I've had less time for it and I miss it!
Here are some mice I created, along with a snowflake I designed, inspired by a sakura model by Makoto Yamaguchi. 🐭❄️

🌴✨ During my first trip to Marea del Portillo, I was lucky enough to find a few specimens of Tellina Radiata as well as sea urchin tests. I was amazed by the beauty of their patterns and colors, each one unique. 🐚🌊

A beautiful #mobile that combines various natural materials: #pebbles, #feathers, and #bones. Each element comes together to create a perfect balance between nature and #creativity!

Mobiles tend to be abstract pieces, but I sometimes enjoy creating representational works as well. I have made a number of these fish mobiles - this is the latest one.

🐚🌴 During my first trip to the Caribbean in 2007, I still remember the excitement I felt when I found my first seashells on the beach. I was amazed and fascinated by their diversity. ✈️☀️
#Lobatus raninus has a small #shell, from 5 to 10 cm, from the #Strombidae family.
