We had 1 False Crawl at the East End and 1 Nest that had to be relocated from the heavy escarpment area. There are 2 nests in that area that could be in jeopardy and we didn’t want a third.
Nest #84
95 eggs relocated to a safer location
Crawl Width: 104cm/41″
The False Crawl width was 93cm/36.5″
Nest #7 had a good number of hatchling tracks this morning. They hatched sometime after Team 5 left for the night. There was 1 straggler making his way down the runway when Patrol came by. They saw him safely to the water.
