Diamond Salt Bridge washout - SHARK!!

Went to check out the bridge to Diamond Salt - gone. Well that means we can only get there by way of Queen's Highway. Diamond Salt had a huge operation on Long Island quite a while back. They pulled out around 20 years ago, leaving beautiful, creepy, decadent homes and all kinds of operations buildings, equipment dumps, docks, salt ponds and an air strip. Great adventure to rummage through the ruins.
While standing on the remains of the old bridge Chris spotted a shark, most likely a Lemon Shark around 7 feet long. And to think we have been all over this area wading, snorkeling etc.....my photo isn't that great, but you can make him out. We saw several smaller sharks swim by, but not the big guy.
