I'm stumped, no pun intended!  Kelly, my wife, found this on the beach while I was busily airing down my tires thanks to the Global Warmer's wont to dig itself to China (darn thing has never been stuck before but then again, you are supposed to air down to 20 lbs per tires when on sand so I only have myself to blame).

Anyway, here are the pictures:

The high angle bone, long tendons, and claws scream "bird" while the crunchiness, texture and feel all screamed "crustacean".  Deep down I think it has to be a bird of some kind, but what kind I do no know.

Any thoughts?
