Joe Posted October 9, 2011 Share Posted October 9, 2011 Some lakes around are low in water and I have seen empty 20cm long shells green/brown in colour.However today I found 2 complete shells with what looked like oysters coloured orange.Dead of course on shore line.Any thoughts on what they might be.
