Like the scavenger birds on the beach, I was busy poking my camera in the grasses and other debris left behind on the beach in winter. I came upon this expired horseshoe crab and was fascinated by a close-up. You can thank me for excluding the smell. And no I didn't salt it - that is sand!
This is a magnified picture of the tidal debris and the sand really does look like salt here. There are grasses but also egg sacs and other soggy, smelly stuff I don't care to identify. And even though it smells rank, the jumble intrigues me. The beach has its seasons and winter brings storms that pull up live shells and dump them at the tide change and clumps of jumbled grasses that slowly get buried by sand.
