Tonight was about as good as an inventory gets! We opened DEB10 natural 5/26 located south #5mm (N. Beach Villas) with a huge crowd looking on with great anticipation. Duane delivered an engaging turtle talk as Mary Beth dug with Donna and Lourdes ready to count/sort shells. Maribeth almost immediately brought out a total of 9 healthy, frisky hatchlings! The crowd went wild as Buffie passed the bucket! Thankfully we had lots of volunteers for the careful release of the hatchlings into the incoming tide. Hatch success: 93%
Thanks to our faithful volunteers who came to help in one way or another… all were needed! We paused for a group photo to document this memorable inventory:)
