Waties Island second turtle nest is now on the books. It is located in front of marker #4. The ghost crabs must have had a lean winter because before we even probed there were two large ghost crab holes.

We decided to put a crab trap in immediately.  There are now traps to check at nests #1 and #2.

Our new walkers, Samantha Fallone and Roger and Jane Ellen Bonner were delighted to find the egg and hold it for a moment before we took the sample.

Finding a nest always makes it a better day on Waties!
