Saturday morning and yet another crawl by this reluctant mother. This crawl was similar to the others: she came up to the edge of the dune, crawled along, dug a little bit, crawled some more, dug a little more, and crawled further and dug again. This site looked a little more promising than the other three - at the last stopping place, there was a large area that had been overthown with loose sand. But after extensive probing by Steve, Seth and Pat, we were unable to find a nest.
Maybe she'll come back once more a lay a nest. Stay tuned...
