turtle update
the turtles at the beach are hatching like crazy, they start hatching as soon as it gets dark and the temperture drops,
most times they make it to the water , but sometimes they get distracted and head the opposite way towards land
the turtles in the bucket are a few that got picked up by the Turtle Watch woman, she said that 5 or 6 of the nests hatched last night,
she put them close to the water and let them finish of their journey out to the ocean, I guess they swim quite a way before they find a place to grow up,
these two were doing some sort of Olympic competiton, one was swiiming freestyle, but the other wanted to do backstroke or just lay on its back in the sun for a while
the ocean picked them all up and they started swimming,
hope you all are having a great weekend
take care
