Hurricane Henri Beach Combing!!

#beachcombing #beachcleanup #recycle
One day, one hurricane, 3 beaches and you will not believe what we found. We specifically targeted cleaning up the plastic and wound up finding so much more.

What beaches did you visit? We have stations before you go on the beach with buckets to pick up trash and plastic in Florida. Why were there so many dead horseshoe crabs and two dead birds? Is there a problem with the water?

[@underthesurface4435]

Hi Trina!, yes we finally have the garbage and recycling buckets here at our beaches also. I’m searching close to home in this video all throughout the bayshore(Raritan Bay), NJ. The horseshoe crabs are typical for this time of year(not sure why) and the birds occasionally get hit by a rapid growing fox population here. Thanks for watching.

Thanks Joy!, glad you found it funny. The storm really was mild here. After surviving Sandy here, it’s going to take quite a storm to ruffle our feathers here. Thanks for watching. Later!

[@Mudhooks]

So many little horseshoe crabs washed up. I never saw little ones on our beach… and I don’t recall whole ones. As far as I recall, they were just the tail or just the body. None were huge but I guess medium-sized. As got the indigenous life-forms you found, very rare specimens, indeed, especially the inflatable one. They are usually week-hidden. To see one in the wild state, albeit apparently lifeless, is noteworthy.

[@Mudhooks]

I occasionally found medical waste, too, including syringes.

[@underthesurface4435]

We do have a very large population of horseshoe crabs here in the bay. Thanks for the appreciation of the rare animalia sighting.

[@underthesurface4435]

I pull off dozens of syringes and dispose of them appropriately all year long. It’s a shame.

What’s going on with all the plastic toys on the beach? And those knives!!!!! 😱 what is WRONG with people?!!! I’ve never seen anything like it 🤦🏻‍♀️. You’re doing a really good job though. apart from plastic bottles, the only thing I find is discarded fishing tackle and line, and pieces of discarded rope. I use the rope to make collages.

[@underthesurface4435]

It’s terrible what’s left on the beach, some of it gets lost in the sand but most is just left. I could probably open up a small shop based on what I take off the beach every year.

[@Woodysback]

Why didn’t you take the empty water bottle next to the 10lb. Weight you grabbed?

[@underthesurface4435]

When I do my recycling trips I have to categorize what I am taking each day…. That tells you how much junk is available that I clean up. This wasn’t a plastic bottle day, but there have been many plastic bottle days. I get asked this question often and appreciate the inquiry so I feel it necessary if you have not seen any of the many videos I have done that clean up the beach, I will tell you every year i collect thousands of pounds of garbage off the beach.

[@dgc940]

Hey what are the creatures called that had the stinger looking tail with a shell that were upside down in first part by the pink octopus? The milk glass isn't old carmex lip chapstick comes in it.

[@underthesurface4435]

The creatures are Horseshoe crabs and mostly of what you are seeing is there discarded shell as they grow a new one…..some of them were the dead carcasses also.

[@amberglavin6051]

Hoping a great deal of the plastic was also picked up while beachcombing. We always carry a garbage bag with us.

[@underthesurface4435]

My beach cleanup is a completely separate trip. We pick up once a week and over the course of the year clear thousands of pounds of plastic, lead, copper, brass, aluminum, etc. but these trips require hazmat gloves, special recycling bags and boots. Unfortunately, it barely makes a dent. So, my treasure hunting trips are left to picking up treasure only, or my bags and pockets would fill up with nothing but garbage.
