Sea snail eggs on the beach

Walking a shoreline and spotting weird clear blobs instead of shells? Those are egg capsules some marine snails leave behind, and each one is basically a sealed nursery. Inside that gelatinous casing, the young get a protected setup to develop in. Would you actually reach down and touch one if it washed up near you?
