Hammer Head Shark at our dock!

Surprise, Surprise....when I looked over and saw a Hammer Head shark about 10' from me, a foot below the surface.  It was a juvenile, about 36-40" long, slowly checking out the empty slip next to Memory Rose.
I luckily had my camera near me too, so I was able to grab a few shots of it as it was swimming out to deeper water.

I passed it along to the local  TV news channels, 8 and 9 and caught it being aired once per hour.  The good reason for this was a few weeks ago, a spear fishing group was attacked by a bull shark in our local waters.
