horseshoe crabs in redhook, brooklyn

[ILoveJapan8]

I feel bad for all the living creatures that live in, or around that dirty water.

yes they are native. They can also be found in Jamaica Bay in Queens

they come in late May and early June to mate and spawn.

they eggs are important resource of food for food for the shore birds.
