Marcy Forman found the junonia early one recent morning at low tide by the Lighthouse. In fact, she says she nearly stepped right on the barnacle-covered shell that blended in with the bot- tom of the tide pool. The Lighthouse beach was a lucky shelling spot for Randi Mar- cus, too.

But I decided to dig it up anyway — and more and more shell kept appearing. "Naturally, I yelled quite a bit," Marcus adds. "I really enjoy the hunt for shells as much as I enjoy having the shell."

New chambers for chamber ^ Moving day was Sunday for the staff of the Sanibel- Captiva Chamber of Commerce. Aided by members of the chamber board of directors, the staff packed up all the tourist-related books, maps and brochures and transported them along with everything else from a temporary trailer across the parking lot to the newly renovated chamber headquarters just off the Causeway. Benchmark Construction completed the $100,000 expanion-renovation project that was designed by ar- chitect Joe St. Cyr. Chamber members will be invited to an open house early next month. The public will also be invited to tour the new building in January. Left: The new lobby boasts a visitors information kiosk that supplies details for just about everything there is to do and see on Sanibel and Captiva. Above: Chamber staff members Reva Kasden and Janet Molloy are prepared to welcome visitors and answer their many questions about the Islands. Photos by Ricki Kosakow Cooper.

ISLAND JOURNEYS JOURNEY TWELVE Looking for Loggerheads' "Looking for Loggerheads" is a nighttime journey along Sanibel's shores with turtle expert Charles LeBuff. He has been studying loggerhead turtles for over 30 years, and is the founder of Caretta Research. His knowledge about the species is formidable. And he tells many wondrous stories as you journey with him.

"A few years back, we came across some tracks," LeBuff says. "We followed them and snuck up to a huge loggerhead. When we looked closer we noticed that she had been mutilated by sharks. She had no flippers," LeBuff pauses. "Yet here was that female continuing to make futile efforts to dig a hole for her nest. Finally, Paul Zajicek got down behind her and scooped out a nest for her." (from Island Journeys, Journey Twelve)

Island Journeys, by Scott Martell, is a 144-page book with over 100 photographs. The book presents 20 adventures into the Southwest Florida coastal environment — shelling, fishing, birding, historical educational jouneys— quests after snook, manatee, stone crabs, roseate spoonbills, alligators, and the Calusa Indians' past. Island Journeys is now available at many fine stores and shops. Mail orders — send $8.95 plus $1 for mailing to Scott Martell, Island Journeys, P.O. Box 56, Sanibel Island, Fla. 33957.
