July 4th Patrol!

7/5/2017

On July 4th, I was on morning patrol with our volunteers, Sherry and Kelly. Before we got to the half mile marker on our beach, we already had used up all the nesting supplies I had gotten ready! So it was back to the shed to pick up more. I gathered 5 more nesting supplies in the hope to have 8 nests. We ended up having to use all the nesting supplies as we had a busy morning with 8 nests and 2 false crawls. It seems like the turtles were celebrating the 4th as well!

​That brought our total up to 121 nests and 102 false crawls. See below for some pictures taken by Kelly. I hope everyone enjoyed their 4th of July!
