Saturday Night: Beautiful, but buggy.
Nest #81 had some hatchlings emerge just before 9:00 with a nice group of visitors who were smitten! They then counted down and waited for the Space-X Rocket. It was a cool sight to see! It looked like the Rocket Booster fell right on top of Bald Head, but we know it was out to sea.
Sunday Morning:
Nests #74, #76 and #79 inventory areas were dug into by crabs. Some egg shells were removed.
Nest #84 appears to have had some hatchlings emerge. The wet sand in the runway prevents us from knowing just how many.
Nest #88 has an indention at day 47. Team 7 has had several nests start the hatching process early this season!
The tide did get pretty high again last night, but I think we were all in the clear. Thank you for all attempts to watch and try to prevent water damage!
12 more nests to go! Have a great day!
