There is a small bowl in our bathroom with some of her finds, which, as you can see, have included some pretty nice coral samples. I don&#8217;t really know a lot about the corals found in the western Atlantic so I&#8217;d just be making a totally uninformed guess if I were to venture an opinion on genus or even family. I&#8217;d be interested if anyone who knows about these things were to offer more information. I&#8217;m more a shell gatherer, partly because I haven&#8217;t the patience to look for coral, although I&#8217;ve found a piece or two over the years. The two pointy shells here are from snails and the one between them is a bivalve, but that&#8217;s as specific as I&#8217;m going to get.
