I've been spending summers, since 1970, on the Fire Island shore of the Great South Bay. I want to share information with those interested in everything about the bay. This May, a very obvious brown tide (see Newsday, 5/18) has made the waters murky. I've not observed any ducks and the baby swans born this season have all died.
Boat traffic is extraordinarily light.
We went clamming. There were plenty of hardshells; they were delicious. Don't know what the growth of new clams will be if this water condition continues. I want to hear from anyone who lives and plays in these waters.
