Time comes for us all.

We found this dead horseshoe crab on the beach today. It had a numbered tag on its shell apparently put there by The Maryland Fish & Wildlife Conservation Office. I've seen many horseshoe crabs here over the years, but never one with a tag. I made sure to go to the website and log it.

Go to the beaches in Delaware full moon around 6/15 and it's mating time for the crabs. It's a spectacle when there are thousands of them on the beach at once!
