There were four nests and 1 NNC today. Nest 17 was located in Zone 4 and 140 eggs were relocated to higher ground. Zones 1, 2, and 6 each had a nest that were left insitu. The NNC was in Zone 2. The beach total is now 20 nests.
The registration for the 2021 Sea Turtle Conservation Project is on hold until the Department of Natural Resources provides Covid guidelines to all South Carolina nesting projects.
The last nest of the season has hatched. This morning Buddy and I checked it out. There were not that many tracks. Perhaps more came out earlier, but the wind blew away the evidence. More may come
Just happened to look up and saw the eagle on the top branch of a dead tree. Since there were very few nests to check, it was a surprise to catch a look. Hope it is here to stay.
