Beach Report

Photos from a couple of days:

The smallest of our butterflies, an Eastern Tailed-Blue. Compare to the clover leaf and blossom it is on.

 Skye on the march!

 An easily spotted shark's tooth. Physogaleus contortus.

It was once thought to be a tiger shark, but has been reclassified to a differnet genus. It's called Physogaleus contortus. P. contortus are very common in the Miocene. They have a slender, twisted crown that is ideal for grasping fish.

A lot of people out hunting for stuff on Calvert Beach.

I found this today, perhaps the largest piece of stingray barb I've ever seen yet.

Up near the turn around point.

A military helicopter, I suspect.
