2003 Turtle Season Diary - page 3
Yo - what's up dude
Yes, they are cute - this little guy has some serious attitude...alien
turtle.
Save the Loop
Wonder what all those signs and messages are
about? Here is one
good reason.
How to read a nest
A lot of people ask us what all the markings
on nest stakes are about - a
picture is worth a thousand words.
Another Surfin' Hatchling
9/04/03 The surf has finally warmed
up a bit, but getting
rough. Once again we enlisted the help
of another surfer to help send the hatchlings toward the
Sargasso seaweed line.
News-Journal pic
9/06/03 Another late morning
emergence caught by a News-Journal
photographer.
What are those fuzzy things washing up?
9/12/03 Hurricane season is here
and Isabel is starting to churn up the ocean. This is causing
seaweed to wash ashore - along with the juvenile
(washback) turtles. Sylvia is holding a washback and
hatchling to show the size
difference.
What a difference a camera makes
Bev
sent some shots she took of the hatchlings with her primo
camera...detail is great.
Not just turtles
The Audubon Society gives us a list of birds
to watch during patrol...we log any activity that we see. Last
year was the night heron, this year we are recording Royal
and Least Tern activity.
