Seeing orange spots


I was helping with some shorebird surveys in Bodega Harbor today when I noticed some egg masses on the tidal flats where I was standing.  When bent down to look more closely, I saw a few bubble snails nearby.  They looked more orange than others I've seen in Bodega Harbor, so I snapped a few quick photos for the record.

I'm wondering if this could be Haloa japonica (formerly Haminoea japonica), but I'll need to check with some folks to confirm.
