Waties Island Sea Turtles

Waties Island, the northernmost barrier island in South Carolina is roughly 4.0 km in length. It is a private undeveloped barrier island at the border of North/South Carolina. All sea turtle monitoring by this group is authorized by the SCDNR Marine Turtle Conservation Program under Permit MTP500. We strive to help protect the sea turtle, and we are at it again this season! The site will be updated often during the nesting season - May 1st through October.

NEST #3 UPDATE

Dee Dee, our special needs turtle, did not make an appearance this morning. She was probably exhausted from the looks of the photo from Barb in the next blog.

Due to a high tide, nest #3 had a wash over. The picture below shows that it wasn't a complete wash.

We had a good group of walkers this morning thanks to Shirley and Truman's visitors, Sharon and Allan, from Virginia and their daughter, Amy.
