Nest #56, a Monday surprise

We had nest #56 from a 30” crawl at Marker 68.5 (Public Parking Lot).  At 3:15 am we got a call from vacationers who saw her come ashore.  By the time Lynda got there she was laying eggs.  She took a long time to cover the eggs and throw sand, which was a shame as this morning we had to move them back from the tide line.  She went back in the water at 4:30 am.  Nest #22 hatched at 55 days with 93 hatchlings.  This was the nest that was moved from the river at Southport.
