This from an American acquaintance: <<<<some good news for a change: NJ Gov. Corzine put an indefinite moratorium on the harvesting of horseshoe crabs in Delaware Bay. This means more eggs will be available at the full moon in May when the shore birds stop to eat and gain strength for the rest of their flight north.... it's esp. good news for the Redknots... whose numbers have been dramatically declining over the years... of course along with the declining # of horseshoe crabs. The HC eggs are used as bait to catch eels. (on a "No Reservations" tv show this evening, Anthony Bourdin ate horseshoe crab eggs in Singapore... and said - in total ignorance, I'm sure - "these are good -- I could sell these in NYC.">>>>> Hope it helps the Redknots and other feeders Marg in White Point, Queens http://margmillard.ca
