A whale died Friday after washing ashore in Bayville.
Viewer video shows the minke whale in the water near Center Island Beach Friday morning.
At first, the whale was able to swim away. But it washed up again around 1 p.m. and couldn't get back into the water.
A team from the Atlantic Marine Conservation Society is trying to determine what killed the whale.
