This has been a weird week at the beach. Mon thru Thur were extremely foggy -- I mean it lasted all day and the water temp was only have been decent if you were a polar bear, until Thur... But this isn't the real reason I'm writing...
Does anyone know why there were so many grasshoppers on the beach in Fenwick Island, DE and Ocean City, MD today? I mean there were hundreds, in the water, washed up on the beach and hopping on the beach in the sand, on people, on chairs, umbrellas, etc. Very weird.
Also there were hardly any seagulls around (normally there are tons) to eat the grasshoppers... Is something environmental, weather-related phenomena or possibly an omen?
