Pine Island in Hilton Head Plantation. This is the northeast corner of the island looking across the marsh to the sound. To my back was the mouth of Skull Creek.
I was walking the beach on Pine Island in Hilton Head Plantation this morning when I noticed a large Blue Crab just off shore. I stopped to look, because I always stop to check out the critters, and I could see that my friend was a female because of her lovely painted nails (claw tips). Next thing I knew a fin broke the surface and there was a small shark circling the lady crab. And this in water not much more than ankle deep- I know because I had stepped into the surf for a closer look. I thought she was a goner for sure…
