With all the near hundred degree temperatures we are having, we expected a hot, muggy and buggy walk, but ended up with a very pleasant, bug free breeze.
As we were walking towards the entrance to the beach, someone spotted a snake. Couldn't make out what type of snake it was with all the sand on it.
Nest 4, laid yesterday 5/28, had a very small crab hole at the nest sight. Looked like a small crab had started to dig and changed its mind. We simply smoothed over the sight and left it be.
Caught a crab in the trap at nest 1. Emptied it and reset it.
At nest 3 we found another Ghost Crab hole.
Though it was not very big, it was deeper. We didn't see the crab, but because there were many crab holes and tracks around the nest, we decided to put the trap in.
At the upper end of the island we saw this mole like tunnel across the beach headed into the dunes. Something was burrowing under the sand.
