Save Coastal Wildlife nonprofit is calling for these speed restrictions to be permanent and mandatory; and to include the entire New York-New Jersey Bight area, since New York Harbor is the busiest port along the Northeast with dozens of large cargo and tanker ships going in and out of the port nearly everyday.

There are many reasons why humpback whales breach, depending on the situation, but some of the most common thoughts include to have a look around at what is going on above the water, trying to remove parasites, scratch an itch, or to stun prey. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1553903987040-DUXFDGNSSIXDCZ4H6VS3/IMG_6472+%282%29.jpg Save Coastal Wildlife Blog - Little Leviathans in NY Harbor According to NOAA Fisheries, humpbacks eat prey by taking large gulps of water. Below the mouth are 12 to 36 throat grooves that expand to hold the water. The whales have 270 to 400 fringed overlapping black plates hanging down from each side of the upper jaw, called baleen plates. The baleen filters the water, and the blowholes on the whale's back expel excess water, but the fish remain in the whale for digestion. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1553904068473-11TG25K2108HL4FT5GJH/Whale+fluke+%28tail%29.JPG Save Coastal Wildlife Blog - Little Leviathans in NY Harbor Humpback whales are identified by the underside and trailing edge of their tail flukes; each one is different just like a fingerprint. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1553905580084-J66SCMU7BDPSINNW6XGA/whale6.jpg Save Coastal Wildlife Blog - Little Leviathans in NY Harbor https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1553904192089-G6Q5P8L4QPBPXHEXDNL2/IMG_5925.JPG Save Coastal Wildlife Blog - Little Leviathans in NY Harbor https://www.savecoastalwildlife.org/featured-coastal-animal daily 0.75 2021-12-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1599051387899-2261E951DRY0VXIAJ7OZ/whales-1149978_960_720.jpg Featured Coastal Animal https://www.savecoastalwildlife.org/featured-coastal-animal/2021/12/12/knobbed-whelk-more-than-just-the-state-of-shell-of-new-jersey monthly 0.5 2024-11-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/c0288f06-e44e-4c16-89fd-efdeed076f81/IMG_9027.jpg Featured Coastal Animal - Knobbed Whelks: More than Just the State Shell of New Jersey - Make it stand out The empty shell of a knobbed whelk (Busycon carica) found along the Jersey Shore. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/5e6129be-3ca5-46f8-92ef-25c1b42568ac/0N7A0986.jpg Featured Coastal Animal - Knobbed Whelks: More than Just the State Shell of New Jersey - Make it stand out Colorful juvenile knobbed whelk shells found along the Jersey Shore. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/fc8f8cbc-037f-4251-aff0-57f936553ef0/knobbed-whelk-4ea9c73b-1934-487a-93da-bad4ad5ffea-resize-750.jpeg Featured Coastal Animal - Knobbed Whelks: More than Just the State Shell of New Jersey - Make it stand out Image from Alchetron Sea snail https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/7e5d45b5-c8e5-488c-9c4e-818264051d2a/land+snail-2078417_1280.jpeg Featured Coastal Animal - Knobbed Whelks: More than Just the State Shell of New Jersey - Make it stand out Land snail https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/827f2741-f7d9-479a-90d7-46e7b9152503/0N7A6013.jpg Featured Coastal Animal - Knobbed Whelks: More than Just the State Shell of New Jersey - Make it stand out Can you hear the ocean by putting a whelk shell to your ear? According to Science Focus, the sound you really hear inside a shell is actually ambient white noise that gets amplified.

This favorable outdoor condition lead to high attendance of people to view the seals along Sandy Hook Bay. This resulted in seals showing signs of stress. Eventually, the seals abandoned this haul-out site for the remainder of the week, and the high amount of seals seen earlier in the month at 70 seals, was never seen again during the monitoring period. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/299c0388-303d-4213-8b8d-8e093fb0f595/1E3A3183a.jpg Volunteers needed for Winter Seal Survey -

According to NOAA, along with entanglement in fishing lines, vessel strikes are a major threat to North Atlantic right whales. A right whale’s habitat and migration routes are close to major ports along the Atlantic seaboard and often overlap with shipping lanes, making the whales vulnerable to collisions with ships. In addition, underwater noise pollution interrupts the normal behavior of right whales and interferes with their communication. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1541703135012-1YISZA7FRRLQ93GNVYGP/cargo-572997_960_720.jpg Save Whales & Sea Turtles from ship strikes The bow or front section of a boat’s hull is like a a battering ram, easily smashing the bones and body of a sleeping or tired whale, sea turtle or another unsuspecting sea creature. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1540667518369-MQXYY3FDUAFZZQ7RETT0/2009+07+27_3508.jpg Save Whales & Sea Turtles from ship strikes A juvenile humpback whale that died of “blunt force” trauma from a vessel collision near Sea Bright, NJ.

The North American population of American Oystercatchers are on the 2014 State of the Birds Watch List, which lists species most in danger of extinction without significant conservation action. The American oystercatcher is a “species of special concern” in several states along the East Coast in the United States, including New Jersey, and is listed as a "yellow" species (indicating a national conservation concern) by The National Audubon Society. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/bdaf5742-56e6-401d-93f8-56755c1839d5/P1060214-2.jpg Save Shorebirds - Make it stand out A flock of Least Terns (Sternula antillarum) observed in the Navesink River, NJ. The Least Tern is the world's smallest tern, about 9 inches in length. It is listed as an endangered species in the State of New Jersey because of human impacts on nesting and fledging areas, especially competition for recreational use of beaches. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1538415903575-IX7VSNVKMO9CJ8JISSHY/IMG_9175.JPG Save Shorebirds Shorebirds Are Indicators of Healthy Ecosystems Shorebirds are also good indicators of ecosystem health. Indicator species tell biologists how they and other creatures in the habitat are doing. For instance, a change in the shorebird population could suggest a decline in their food resources or a problem with one of the abiotic(nonliving, such as water and soil) components of the ecosystem.

By the late 19th century, plume hunters had nearly wiped out the snowy egret population of the United States. These birds had evolved extravagant breeding plumage as sexual advertisements to attract mates. The feathers, apparently, had such a similar effect on 19th-century men that sources of supply began to disappear. So extensive was the decoupling of egrets and their feathers that egrets were adopted as the symbol of the original bird preservation movement. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1539623353106-6O9X5WAXEM65VAHRYY4B/hats_custom-01ceb7cdf7a426d186e86d2cb00e6ee25e5966b2-s800-c85.jpg Save Shorebirds Woman wearing a hat made of bird feathers, circa 1912.

Similar to what happens in the tidal water of New York State, a commercial fishermen off the coast of Delaware is chopping up horseshoe crabs in half because they are the favored bait for “conching” or catching whelks for market. The difference between New York & Delaware is that female horseshoe crabs are fully protected from “conching” in Delaware. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1545075086624-2QVP4XUEI8PC5EHEL3PD/IMG_1344.jpg Save Horseshoe Crabs in New York Harbor A Horseshoe Crab sign in Great Kills Park on Staten Island, New York City. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/e83f8ebb-0726-46c0-bebc-527e5cacc306/912X5puxDGL._SL1500_.jpeg Save Horseshoe Crabs in New York Harbor - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1739211043488-ELONTMKTT3N4JIZW2MA6/unsplash-image-EZs4Tt_pMAU.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1545074411502-0A1BYKWNX4L1ZSVSD1GQ/IMG_0315.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/a9fd8afb-8984-44c5-a5c9-f65580b534d2/GovKathyHochul_FeatureBio_Photo.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/b47d62d5-16df-4996-bd38-9fe6de25c0a6/channels4_profile.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/9d850882-cade-43ed-b07d-0ecc0d9475de/NYS_Assembly_Official_Seal.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/45694d7f-dbdb-413e-9142-21edfaf04aeb/Carcinoscorpius_rotundicauda_%28Chonburi%29.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/9166ddb8-0ba4-4c37-8a2d-cf522c0feb89/IMG_5262.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/6ffb89b0-92c9-4c6a-a748-25fe79d5db9b/Screenshot+2025-03-03+at+10.33.51%E2%80%AFPM.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1545075086624-2QVP4XUEI8PC5EHEL3PD/IMG_1344.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/e83f8ebb-0726-46c0-bebc-527e5cacc306/912X5puxDGL._SL1500_.jpeg https://www.savecoastalwildlife.org/sea-level-rise daily 0.75 2025-10-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1635646762324-F72XNCS6SM7VO7LBTSN9/IMG_0721.jpeg Sea Level Rise - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1546285151833-HG5KPA38CM7OQAJ83ZYD/IMG_0434.jpg Sea Level Rise https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1546285170393-LQ0YWEB9WO9I83DQ920E/IMG_0435.JPG%2B%282%29.jpg Sea Level Rise https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1546284479551-BBO2NNKYAJ50NJXQUH3B/IMG_0333%2B%281%29.jpg Sea Level Rise https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1546284494969-8Z56CWSQHHTUJDN1KL76/IMG_0334%2B%281%29.jpg Sea Level Rise https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1546284877667-CHCXN9ECIJQOERF0FVOL/gw-graphic-local-sea-level-rise-and-tidal-flooding-graph-1970-2012.jpg Sea Level Rise https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1546284972237-Z25EV0694JZJFEC4UA65/gw-graphic-chart-tidal-flooding-today-2030-2045.jpg Sea Level Rise https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1635646762324-F72XNCS6SM7VO7LBTSN9/IMG_0721.jpeg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1546285151833-HG5KPA38CM7OQAJ83ZYD/IMG_0434.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1546285170393-LQ0YWEB9WO9I83DQ920E/IMG_0435.JPG%2B%282%29.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1546284479551-BBO2NNKYAJ50NJXQUH3B/IMG_0333%2B%281%29.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1546284494969-8Z56CWSQHHTUJDN1KL76/IMG_0334%2B%281%29.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1546284877667-CHCXN9ECIJQOERF0FVOL/gw-graphic-local-sea-level-rise-and-tidal-flooding-graph-1970-2012.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1546284972237-Z25EV0694JZJFEC4UA65/gw-graphic-chart-tidal-flooding-today-2030-2045.jpg https://www.savecoastalwildlife.org/sea-surface-temperature daily 0.75 2025-10-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1546285293272-VOKGOXEOSCTZK9P0S3MS/sea-surface-temp-figure2-2016.png Sea Surface Temperature This map shows how average sea surface temperature around the world changed between 1901 and 2015. It is based on a combination of direct measurements and satellite measurements. A black “+” symbol in the middle of a square on the map means the trend shown is statistically significant. White areas did not have enough data to calculate reliable long-term trends. Data source: IPCC, 20137; NOAA, 20168 Web update: August 2016 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1546298682452-FM66RBN6PUTDNCO7H21Y/2016SST_DelawareBay_en_title_lg.jpg Sea Surface Temperature Large sections of the global oceans have warmed 1°-3°F during the last century, with some buoy locations having a more dramatic rise recently. Warmer water fuels hurricanes, and not surprisingly, the average number of major hurricanes — those Category 3 or higher — has increased in the Atlantic basin since the 1970s. Globally, climate models project that there will likely be an increase in the wind speed and rainfall intensity of the strongest hurricanes (aka tropical cyclones), even though their frequency may remain unchanged or even decrease by the end of this century. However, the extent of these effects from climate change will vary by region. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1546285608832-3UNR3XVGG5FK39QP0D9F/2016SST_Nantucket_en_title_lg.jpg Sea Surface Temperature When we talk about a warming climate, we often focus on air temperatures. Only 7 percent of the excess energy trapped in the climate system by increasing greenhouse gases goes into the land, air, and ice, though, while 93 percent of that energy goes into the oceans. The water temperature rise is slow and steady, as it takes 4 times more energy to raise the temperature of water compared to the air.

For several years, researchers have been tracking one whale named “Moon” who had a broken tail that was bent into an unnatural “S” shape, likely from a boat strike. On Dec. 1, 2022, a whale-watching vessel in Hawaii reported seeing Moon with a severe spinal trauma and could no longer swim using its tail.

NOAA Fishers has adopted a seasonal speed restriction in certain areas during the winter, but this policy needs to be reviewed for year-round marine mammal activity at a wider area. As of now, all vessels 65 feet (19.8 meters) or longer must travel at 10 knots or less in certain locations (Seasonal Management Areas) along the U.S. east coast at certain times of the year to reduce the threat of ship collisions with endangered North Atlantic right whales.

We don’t even have a rough idea how many beaked whales live in the ocean. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1567642106523-4ONENZ772DTP5974AC8E/bottle-2349126_960_720.jpg Pollution https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1567641629065-YY1LGDKY1GHJR8W4KXL6/images.jpg Pollution https://www.savecoastalwildlife.org/save-diamondback-terrapins daily 0.75 2025-08-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1598752937756-383FDNZ70MLEUB5D5URR/sea-1835620_960_720.jpg Diamondback Terrapins https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1567987710849-TAW6KMR625B0JVQJ8CM3/IMG_9821.jpg Diamondback Terrapins - SAVE DIAMONDBACK TERRAPINS in new jersey An adult Diamondback terrapin that was run over and killed by a vehicle in New Jersey https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1567989184838-UOWC6H91U57BIWOX3JKT/IMG_0213.jpg Diamondback Terrapins https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1567989227015-MDUF26WQ7KTIXM47AKBW/D9CE9C67-70CB-40D9-96E1-E994B8C84005.jpg Diamondback Terrapins https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1567990139155-WCH1F74FDTE9Y2IVUNQ7/IMG_3659_Fotor.jpg Diamondback Terrapins Several male diamondback terrapins found dead in a blue claw crab trap in the Navesink River, 2010. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1567990054726-CK7URS0Z8PE06D4YIX5I/IMG_3485_Fotor.jpg Diamondback Terrapins Diamondback terrapins have noses, not gills, and are air-breathing animals.

Microplastics come from a variety of sources, including from larger plastic debris that degrades into smaller and smaller pieces. These tiny particles easily pass through water filtration systems and end up in the bay and ocean, posing a potential threat to aquatic life. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1570151392108-GFONMNQNKVMS14BMMDQH/IMG_2049.jpeg Microplastic Beach Research - Nurdles are small plastic pellets about the size of a lentil. Countless nurdles are used each year to make nearly all our plastic products, including fleece jackets and vests, but many end up washing up onto our coast. Spills from tanker ships and mishandling by industry can mean nurdles end up in our estuaries and oceans. Unlike large pieces of plastic, nurdles are so small that they largely go unnoticed by the public. They can easily blend in with beach sand. They often appear as tiny pebbles or grains of sand. Scientists are now becoming increasingly concerned about their effect on human health and our coastal ecosystem. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1574715803123-4822FP94LP65SCAL2W76/IMG_3120.jpeg Microplastic Beach Research Micro-plastic beach monitoring at Plum Island, Sandy Hook National Recreation Area, New Jersey. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/71502209-43a3-4e2c-8f22-f38bd6afeefc/iStock-1313817688.jpg Microplastic Beach Research -

For example… During the 1960s and 1970s, barndoor skates (Dipturus laevis) were depleted by commercial fisheries as bycatch. Bottom fisheries that targeted Atlantic cod and other species accidentally captured a large number of barndoor skates. This caused numbers to drop quickly. Conservation efforts that began in the 1990s have succeeded in increasing numbers, but scientists still consider this species to be endangered. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1609385218902-6FH9R75JTQCE05JCW04V/IMG_9127.JPG Spring Skate & Whelk Egg Case Hunt https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1609375840379-IZJ2C8YBL29JUXE4OCQ5/IMG_5202.JPG Spring Skate & Whelk Egg Case Hunt https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1609376748674-N4V9HLHY52OQD98K8RI1/IMG_9179.jpg Spring Skate & Whelk Egg Case Hunt https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1609381951576-VTAFDTY55UU7H3R6KWLN/IMG_6798+2.JPG Spring Skate & Whelk Egg Case Hunt Skate egg case https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1609382676803-ILJPD6Y03RR6KBQUP55N/IMG_3095.JPG Spring Skate & Whelk Egg Case Hunt Whelk egg case https://www.savecoastalwildlife.org/skates-rays-of-the-jersey-shore daily 0.75 2025-09-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1609550526044-VHBM5X28QG585JWTFY9F/sting-ray-1655189_960_720-2.jpg Skates & Rays of the Jersey Shore https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1609636664812-AKZYTM5NIQ04FCTIAYPA/IMG_2199.jpg Skates & Rays of the Jersey Shore The underside of a Clearnose Skate.

that, while the fishermen were trying to catch a different kind of fish, they accidentally catch sharks in their nets too.

Shark fin soup is an ancient Asian dish that’s said to signify prosperity. It’s so sought-after in many Asian markets (including Chinatowns in both New York City and San Francisco) that a single bowl can go for up to $100. Putting a pretty price on an individual shark. Continued demand for shark fin soup, dumplings, and other shark fin dishes served in restaurants around the world today perpetuates the practice of finning, resulting in an estimated 73 million sharks being killed each year for their fins alone according to the Animal Welfare Institute. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1635735024902-65P46RRISYM09C1G8I71/3D9CFB60-478F-423D-B4A9-5F870DCC567B.jpg Sharks of the Jersey Shore - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1613404779589-TR33YSJ7J4A0SXOJ2SJU/Thresher.jpg Sharks of the Jersey Shore Image from Wikipedia https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1613761292801-FB4MM3R7USTZX5D78BHO/Isurus_oxyrinchus_by_mark_conlin2.JPG Sharks of the Jersey Shore Image from Wikipedia With attack speeds between 25 to 60 miles per hour (similar to a speedboat), the shortfin mako is the fastest shark and is one of the fastest fishes on the planet. They are so fast, this fish even made into the Guinness World Records. The normal cruising rate of a typical shark is around 2 miles/hour during the day. Great white sharks can swim at speeds of around 16 mph for short bursts. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1613508452790-CGO8AYY6HNTOSMF3MHI9/best+mako+mouth+shot+.jpg Sharks of the Jersey Shore The bite of a shortfin mako shark is exceptionally strong; the current record for the strongest bite measured for any shark belongs to a shortfin mako that was recorded at Mayor Island in New Zealand in 2020. The shark had been coaxed into biting a custom-made "bite meter" as part of an experiment to measure mako bite force. The strongest bite recorded during the experiment was roughly 3,000 lbs. of force.

Copepods inhabit a huge range of salinities, from fresh water to hypersaline conditions, and they can be found virtually everywhere there is water. There are many different species of copepods, seven or eight thousand to over 20,000 species. Many have a somewhat cylindrical, segmented body, one simple eye, two antennae and an exoskeleton. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ab3de834eddec92938aef0a/1625251578595-G80I9HD7QXIN46DGPLVI/IMG_0430.JPG Plankton Research Along the Jersey Shore - Make it stand out A humpback whale seen feeding along the Jersey Shore either on a mixture of small fish and plankton or predominantly on plankton (copepods).

These zooplankton are then eaten by larger animals such as fish (nekton).

Quite a few inlets along the Jersey Shore have become good places for migratory and coastal birds to rest, cast about for a meal, or even nest during the spring and summer on a sandy beach.
