Daylight Nest Emergence

Relocated nest at 51st Ave N, Cherry Grove.   Thursday morning, Day 52,  crack and slight depression


6:30 PM...Sand has fallen with deep hole in the back


7PM,  Hatchlings start to emerge











































Within 10 minutes, emergence is through, all that remains is a huge hole






Sun is setting.  Hatchlings have completed the first leg of what we hope is a long journey....



A huge thanks to Corrina, Karen, Mary and all others who contributed pictures and videos!

A rare night on NMB
