Then it was all beauty!
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.

Thursday, July 23
Very still, hot, humid and sweaty morning. Still my senses love the sights, smells and sounds. All was basically calm. There was a large hole right by the reed on #1 nest. We put in a ghost crab trap and searched thoroughly for shells. I even looked for dead turtles. The nest is near emergence. No hatchling tracks yet though.
