Hi All - I wish I had better news, but we still have not had a False Crawl or a nest on Waties Island. I checked our historical records, just to give everyone some hope, this week may be our lucky week. The first nest in 2022 was May 25th, 2020 our first nest was on May 19th. I skipped 2021 since our first nest was really early, May 6th.
South Carolina Summary of Nests
Nests: 383 (381)

As stated in previous emails, most of the nests have been on the southern beaches, but this past week, nests have been laid on beaches closer to Waties Island, both in SC and NC.
Wishing all Volunteer Teams Good Luck this week
