Hi Peggy,
Big as a fist? Do you have the length?
I know what you mean about always looking. And looking twice. I've found that if I scan a line of shell grit twice, I often pick up something new the second time around. As I mentioned before, the small T. triangularis I just found was about to be discarded because it was well camouflaged--looked like a chunk of dead coral.

Man's attitude toward nature is today critically important simply because we have now acquired a fateful power to alter and destroy nature. - Rachel Carson, early 1960s
