Thursday Night:
Nest #66 hatched with 131 baby turtles heading straight for the ocean!
Friday Morning:
- Nest #64 hatched overnight with LOTS of tracks in the runway!
- Nest #62 had one more hatchling track in the runway.
- Nest #66 had several more tracks in the runway. That nest was relocated with 140 eggs. 131 + the several more = not many left to hatch, if any!!!
- Green has been left up to the upper 70’s-early 80’s, just in case!
