 Photo taken by Sharon James We had a successful night walk on World Sea Turtle Day! We saw the nesting turtle once she had finished laying and was covering her egg chamber. We then got to see her head into the ocean, it was such an amazing sight to see! The following morning we found 2 nests and 1 false crawl. The nest we saw on the night walk is marked as nest #39 on our beach.See below for some pictures. If you would like to adopt the nest, click on the button below to be taken to the adoption page. This nest has a unique ID of: 225008. The funds from a nest adoption help to support our EBSP Turtle Program.

My wife Christy and I, and other family members were part of the 6/16 night walk. Amazing just to see her covering and returning to sea!!
