From late winter into early spring, whelks visit the preserve for their mating season. Leave live shells to their task of making new baby whelks & do not disturb their long coiling egg sacs, which need to stay in the water to survive.

Now might be a good time to remind you that this is what outdoor winter activities look like in Florida...

Ya know, just in case it doesn't look quite as green wherever you are.

Or, as we say in Florida, Hotumn...when the calendar says it's fall, but it still feels like summer.

Come on down and get a taste of Hotumn on your fall break!

Pelicans aren't only the unofficial mascot of St. Petersburg, they are part of a great cast of wildlife in Shell Key Preserve. Our daily glimpse into life in the preserve is a highlight of the tour.

• If you see hatchlings on the beach, do not try to assist (they know what they're doing), maintain a safe distance (at least 50 feet), keep quiet, and keep all lights off (they use the light of the moon to find their way).
