Did you know... that the islands in Great Egg Harbor Bay, a habitat for migratory birds, are eroding at a rate of 0.28 in (7 mm) per year?

Why is it called Great Egg? Is there a Lesser Egg? Whose eggs? Abductive (reasoning) 19:58, 14 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
Added the information @Abductive: yes, there is a Little Egg Harbor. It appears that Cornelius Jacobson Mey described the southern New Jersey coast as "Eyren Haven", or "Egg Harbor". ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 03:21, 15 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
