Nesting Season is in Full Swing! Nest 6 Today

 How can you not just love walking on the beach at sunrise?? And the bonus of walking and discovering a sea turtle crawl too?? The best!!

 

A lovely morning sky and an exciting discovery

First nest for Saturday team - excitement!

Just above the beach entrance we found the tracks - nice in and out and nice neat spot for the nest up on dune.

 



Incoming track was 33" wide


Pretty spot - up on a dune away from danger

New volunteers Betsy and Jeannie making the discovery about 11" down
