Beach Report 11/16/25

A cool, blue sky day with no wind to speak of. This is confirmation that the Buffies are back.
Speaking of which, on the way bay, I was going over one of the groins along the way, and there, just below me, was a Buffie, sitting on the shore. 
I've never seen one come ashore before, so I tried to sneak up and grab him and check to see if it was injured.
But he got back into the water as I approached, and then flew off a short way. If he was hurt, he wasn't too hurt to fly. 
Not a great day for shark's teeth, only 5, but I did find a couple of interesting bones. One is clearly a small vertebra, probably a dolphin of some sort. I'm not even willing to guess what the other is, it's pretty worn, but it's long, and has one end with a termination. 
A little further along I found this Whistle-pig, aka Groundhog wandering around. 
It was clearly aware of me, but walked past anyway, even though it could have ducked into the brush.

I have no idea what this means regarding the length of winter.
