Clam Shells with Natural Hole Formations
 
Found these on the beach in Washington. Love the naturally made holes that were made by snails that bore into them for food.

Welcome Elva
So Cool!
I have a small Clam Shaped stone with three whelk holes in it,
the number of raspy tongued licks over thousands of years by these creatures to accomplish this astounds me 
Will track it down and post a photo, (hopefully)
Thanks for showing!
