Nest 12 Has Emerged

It was an absolutely beautiful and calm morning with a fantastic sunrise.

 But what a surprise, Nest 12's hatching at 67 days.  Just three days before it would have been inventoried anyway.   It was good to see it had hatched as it had been washed over with the high tide from hurricane Irma last Tuesday.  What might have saved it was the fact that this nest was a good 18 inches below the surface when we first found it.  The inventory of this nest will be interesting.
