Horseshoe crab eggs at Sandy Point SP

« on: July 21, 2008, 11:12:01 PM »

Just wanted to share an observation I had a week or so ago. When I was at Sandy Point I was playing around in the sand and discovered tons of horseshoe crab eggs a foot or so beneath the surface near the shoreline. Every foot or so in either direction was a new area where eggs had been deposited. Just an observation. Cool

Yes. They were very small and round. About 1/4 the size of a pea...if not smaller. Wink
