A deceased dolphin washed up on the shore in Astoria on Friday morning, weeks after a pair of the marine mammals were first spotted in the East River.

The animal was spotted on the beach at Hallett’s Cove, near the Astoria ferry landing, early on Feb. 28. By about 9:30 a.m. on Friday, an officer from the state’s Department of Environmental Conservation had covered the dolphin with a plastic tarp and temporarily closed the beach to the public.
