Monday, June 21st - Welcome first day of Summer

 The Monday Team left a little later in the morning to ensure the beach road was safe.  There was a lot of rain and wind last night from the passing of TS Claudette.  The beach was very wind blown, with some very interesting sand art work.   The rest of the Monday Volunteers walked today, all were very happy to be back on the beach.  However, we had no sea turtle action today.

A cage was placed over Nest #1 on day 45 (Sunday) this is used as a determent from Coyotes digging up our nest.


Happy, Happy Summer!
