Cold, Rainy and Windy Day for False Crawl #2

Predictions for dire weather kept us from an early morning patrol. A mid-morning break in the storm gave us a chance to quickly check for any new sea turtle activity.

Glad we were able to get out there: A new crawl was spotted near the upper end of the island. Unfortunately it was not a nesting attempt; only a quick in and out. Maybe she's checking the site for another try tonight!


In and out; no nest today

Up to the dunes, left turn for a few feet and back to the ocean
