This will stay with them long after they leave the beach. 4 live hatchlings were found deep in the nest that had not been able to make it out on their own.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlY7k78OKjvbR2f1ZebKdkntMw1BcBoxY1T3_RmXIv8dniTazDiSxZcIm3El4QMVhTGuw6vQFsl_mXftlEUOHwb2kmHrFJ6NJH7E_3zPzv9ZNHWjSzmyfZKRwTTmZOGvrQvJiju3PrwaWlyThB-iRNmiNlroZ0lJXooQzjO8gU7ghLJtV-lRDIB8sX6tL0/s640/IMG_0448.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlY7k78OKjvbR2f1ZebKdkntMw1BcBoxY1T3_RmXIv8dniTazDiSxZcIm3El4QMVhTGuw6vQFsl_mXftlEUOHwb2kmHrFJ6NJH7E_3zPzv9ZNHWjSzmyfZKRwTTmZOGvrQvJiju3PrwaWlyThB-iRNmiNlroZ0lJXooQzjO8gU7ghLJtV-lRDIB8sX6tL0/s320/IMG_0448.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZXcL-XDuHyoRzfbW7yfOc5CjVcXpnWk_xnzqSKgDlfClOmjBVWcOHp6MY629gVPykoYTFgTm8aL04F2KRfhk5I_7t5VxRBoEmZnmcpcNW7930aMPaiOCxFWSIX4WQJWO7st_XKuA_gu1JuouhO2CU492a_nC6loIybcH6KvkOznDqlghXU2ewkvTixWuQ/s640/IMG_0449.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZXcL-XDuHyoRzfbW7yfOc5CjVcXpnWk_xnzqSKgDlfClOmjBVWcOHp6MY629gVPykoYTFgTm8aL04F2KRfhk5I_7t5VxRBoEmZnmcpcNW7930aMPaiOCxFWSIX4WQJWO7st_XKuA_gu1JuouhO2CU492a_nC6loIybcH6KvkOznDqlghXU2ewkvTixWuQ/s320/IMG_0449.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEityTdLIT-pbaQm6h0TX-TgASBXlFdYj2rqlA8DOKTFc6gr_4S3mxxc-EjfOXsCjM-oxZQNGnX8me0PCvrkLQZAX_H8aTp6MJJm_nxkANuruy1hVWtiWnyHYK-E8B4RsKf02I5CQZh6XlfJ6DdVmnRrefrK_FK9eWUp54PIiYuLzwS8lkz2zFo-lOae2acb/s640/IMG_0456.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEityTdLIT-pbaQm6h0TX-TgASBXlFdYj2rqlA8DOKTFc6gr_4S3mxxc-EjfOXsCjM-oxZQNGnX8me0PCvrkLQZAX_H8aTp6MJJm_nxkANuruy1hVWtiWnyHYK-E8B4RsKf02I5CQZh6XlfJ6DdVmnRrefrK_FK9eWUp54PIiYuLzwS8lkz2zFo-lOae2acb/s320/IMG_0456.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGyHJzGG4gYqqR7vU-le06zxNUE-H-ytn9XHH6D9tsehvxmpJIMzYZrwDOZriSOQLpI-sn_k5HTDydLkOlKx5bGdz7V4v1VNjAGAcCX2m-jR-8NxoDMKzmnEhXgLliuHotTNonwUjiqVHk5PZiPHiA50p8C_oL_zbOmR4BBCVejbuTo0nmfh1C-JuGYJsc/s640/IMG_0462.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGyHJzGG4gYqqR7vU-le06zxNUE-H-ytn9XHH6D9tsehvxmpJIMzYZrwDOZriSOQLpI-sn_k5HTDydLkOlKx5bGdz7V4v1VNjAGAcCX2m-jR-8NxoDMKzmnEhXgLliuHotTNonwUjiqVHk5PZiPHiA50p8C_oL_zbOmR4BBCVejbuTo0nmfh1C-JuGYJsc/s320/IMG_0462.jpg" width="320" /></a></div> <div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: center;">The eggshells are separated and counted to determine the inventory results of this nest.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx3lSrHIge_zZ25G751Wl0jm9x7bizjcoBuPk9BHfVpLyUZQ8p8p1VImB26TYbvO0vyl7MJIoQxFkkySHNHJp-gg458HOtqrWULwStc8MfDhK376VOvhGR4ruLck_He8Sdtslt1PRWkcq1i5TSTEdS7sLzmCQKlWI5df2CJtKuLnkkRwRSaamoTwp7ACuB/s640/IMG_0459.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="398" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx3lSrHIge_zZ25G751Wl0jm9x7bizjcoBuPk9BHfVpLyUZQ8p8p1VImB26TYbvO0vyl7MJIoQxFkkySHNHJp-gg458HOtqrWULwStc8MfDhK376VOvhGR4ruLck_He8Sdtslt1PRWkcq1i5TSTEdS7sLzmCQKlWI5df2CJtKuLnkkRwRSaamoTwp7ACuB/s320/IMG_0459.jpg" width="199" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;">The 4 Hatchlings that were found in the nest are released on the beach to make their way on their own.

Thankfully weather had tapered down long enough for NMB STP Volunteers to be able to walk this morning. Two crawls were found this morning by the same couple walking this section of the beach.</p><p> Time was of the essence, relief from the storms was predicted to be brief. The first crawl was quickly determined to be a false crawl, so all focus was put into this nest. The nest was marked in case the storms came in and we were not able to finish protecting this nest. </p><p style="text-align: center;">153 eggs were in this nest.</p><p>During much of the incubation of this nest, many windy days had added layers of sand to the top of this nest, making this nest very deep.

They never know what they may find.</p><p>The Briarcliffe Volunteers know the importance of protecting the endangered Sea Turtle Species. As time goes on there are more and more obstacles for the Endangered Sea Turtle Species to endure. The beaches are more populated as building continues. Storms often affecting the precious beaches and dunes. More boats on the ocean, means more accidental boat interactions with the Sea Turtles. More pollution and plastics in the ocean, where the Sea Turtles ingest plastic debris and plastic bags thinking it is food. With each day bringing more obstacles, every protected nest is crucial.</p><p>Today The Briarcliff Volunteers have found a false crawl, (where the Loggerhead Sea Turtle came up to shore to nest but turned around going back into the ocean without nesting). Hoping that she will come back to nest soon.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXkgpv0D7VOW95XKP3rzGTdVf3vNrTCHnDPcilScsui6W6Fu2clVfkNKMBj-MCba2X9qTcGNGCrntpIhJZkO6yxXXd8zL3IopQidrChI1vBYpHUxD5yWi5onD0_kN5NoWnKo_coTxRScWY_oCSlxPZhlbKTair1UgcrAF-AIiV_4vqc3f7CvdiyHEjMnJZ/s640/IMG_4899.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="480" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXkgpv0D7VOW95XKP3rzGTdVf3vNrTCHnDPcilScsui6W6Fu2clVfkNKMBj-MCba2X9qTcGNGCrntpIhJZkO6yxXXd8zL3IopQidrChI1vBYpHUxD5yWi5onD0_kN5NoWnKo_coTxRScWY_oCSlxPZhlbKTair1UgcrAF-AIiV_4vqc3f7CvdiyHEjMnJZ/s320/IMG_4899.JPG" width="240" /></a></div><br /><p>All Sea Turtles are endangered, they are federally, and state protected.

While walking closer to the body pit(nest), there are indications that she may have been interfered with while nesting.</p><p>The body pit is longer than normally seen. There are also foot prints right in the middle of the body pit. While some people who were on the beach confirmed some of the thoughts that this Sea Turtle had been interfered with.</p><p>Please remember, all Sea Turtles are endangered. It is illegal to shine lights on, touch, harass or hinder in any way. It is fortunate that this Sea Turtle did nest. Who knows what this stress could have put on this poor nesting mother. When nesting they are out of their element, it is dark, and their defenses are down. They are made to glide through the ocean waters. When on land, they have to drag their heavy body up out of the water, crawl up the beach to a nesting spot. Digging a hole around 18" to 2 feet sometimes deeper using only her two back flippers. Laying her eggs, burying them up and trying to cover up her egg chamber before returning back to the ocean where she is now in her element. Please let all Sea Turtles nest in peace.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">A beautiful incoming and outgoing crawl</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwXYP8npLm6EWokGNfu6N_X_xBtMUTVWaPBudieTu191OYC_K550ge380KkI2uwrNq460NIBnbKY2BlOXJe04SYPvMKiCqyKnwtcrkD9QLNKs8ypp012FIEDFjprNuJRhrVzcg8rq9L2x0x0lNh2eNkDCL4y1S5xIJQYCD04RLud8T3MPWeJsPBK2ycyAf/s640/IMG_8003.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="480" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwXYP8npLm6EWokGNfu6N_X_xBtMUTVWaPBudieTu191OYC_K550ge380KkI2uwrNq460NIBnbKY2BlOXJe04SYPvMKiCqyKnwtcrkD9QLNKs8ypp012FIEDFjprNuJRhrVzcg8rq9L2x0x0lNh2eNkDCL4y1S5xIJQYCD04RLud8T3MPWeJsPBK2ycyAf/s320/IMG_8003.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRGbggj04AuVQWthlJG3SjqCXGlPo87F35Wc--jee8yP1PrDhMWa5vi2sSc2cl1pmxkxtbQrvDYqjtDEqNL1HVQLNgC8HW2Zp0iddU85cg3pl77x3lkujskz1QpAnWzEsw4oP2-Atn7jQ8XgTgCQuXdkSO_XEWDFnXcURkoWTSfpZOLGjNDb2TQG3EKGkT/s640/IMG_8005.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRGbggj04AuVQWthlJG3SjqCXGlPo87F35Wc--jee8yP1PrDhMWa5vi2sSc2cl1pmxkxtbQrvDYqjtDEqNL1HVQLNgC8HW2Zp0iddU85cg3pl77x3lkujskz1QpAnWzEsw4oP2-Atn7jQ8XgTgCQuXdkSO_XEWDFnXcURkoWTSfpZOLGjNDb2TQG3EKGkT/s320/IMG_8005.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><p>Thankfully this nesting mother has nested, despite seeing signs that she had been bothered while nesting.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEht9tPYjQbMaPifk1CLFW-OxBT_XRUAAWpljJCBYNIkj-giViaIquRWA_GTICgOOQYwXd3Afj85gpEnaqNtm-HiQEBlmpoG8jvswNQOklYuOVXM4tcOF-KLhfShtZMpY-8YsfFmdbNLim5B1W0hpklUcc3o_JK674TvjR25RVyIZZNPkd66WUScNFeYc_04/s640/IMG_8007.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEht9tPYjQbMaPifk1CLFW-OxBT_XRUAAWpljJCBYNIkj-giViaIquRWA_GTICgOOQYwXd3Afj85gpEnaqNtm-HiQEBlmpoG8jvswNQOklYuOVXM4tcOF-KLhfShtZMpY-8YsfFmdbNLim5B1W0hpklUcc3o_JK674TvjR25RVyIZZNPkd66WUScNFeYc_04/s320/IMG_8007.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8dHef8MT3VfFCQlxpTYH0seHVcIDzmsDGS4wrI2STui824k7ZEkDTKQkndyBE9sXTRc_xfS_86fH4meUJB67C_xwyeIRntSZespsVjgIhc1v1msFkqF9T5elw9ZaAVAppK-TOxNF7bTeAnXjiUd_CYuka8eSgRxnSsIIHIXb5WVDPy9k_r-C1SA4UJg6-/s640/2023nest12%20body%20pit1.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8dHef8MT3VfFCQlxpTYH0seHVcIDzmsDGS4wrI2STui824k7ZEkDTKQkndyBE9sXTRc_xfS_86fH4meUJB67C_xwyeIRntSZespsVjgIhc1v1msFkqF9T5elw9ZaAVAppK-TOxNF7bTeAnXjiUd_CYuka8eSgRxnSsIIHIXb5WVDPy9k_r-C1SA4UJg6-/s320/2023nest12%20body%20pit1.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div>NMB STP Volunteers shine as they share their knowledge, passion and commitment, helping to spread the word about the Endangered Sea Turtle Species.

FIRST GREEN SEA TURTLE NEST #11 IN NMB<p> As calls are coming into the Hotline from Leonard, a friend of the patrol and calls from NMB STP Volunteers, about a nice crawl and a huge body pit. As pictures were coming into the hotline, Linda knew what this looked like, an Endangered Green Sea Turtle.</p><p> The NMB STP had encountered a Green Sea Turtle before as she had come to shore, crawling halfway up the beach but returning to the ocean without nesting. It is very rare to have a Green Sea Turtle nest in SC. But many patrol volunteers had dreams and hopes for the day when a Green Sea Turtle would nest on the beaches of NMB. While there has never been a documented Green Sea Turtle nest in NMB, this would prove to be the first. Green Sea Turtles are the second biggest Sea Turtles, weighing about 400-500 pounds. </p><p>This would be the day that all this hoping would come true. A HUGE body pit, not anything you could miss. Thrown sand several feet as she tries to cover up her egg cavity and disguise it.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjammI5K_3sfYPxudxbOL-3XKx59Kt883GGNoxC0IZ8ekFUILn3_XVrLFKEHrQtEEze97t7S-MKfa09Uhjdf0EQ0TjdqfhgdQEmvTWtn-xCSid9fEuE9mkKnAlC0yJV5Od2HBJ-7Bll1tojVCmXNpZyRV0CijoG3KkpF5HvDruki1I17dYMGTZQrgV8Vvtd/s640/IMG_7800.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjammI5K_3sfYPxudxbOL-3XKx59Kt883GGNoxC0IZ8ekFUILn3_XVrLFKEHrQtEEze97t7S-MKfa09Uhjdf0EQ0TjdqfhgdQEmvTWtn-xCSid9fEuE9mkKnAlC0yJV5Od2HBJ-7Bll1tojVCmXNpZyRV0CijoG3KkpF5HvDruki1I17dYMGTZQrgV8Vvtd/s320/IMG_7800.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhT2imaHus0U7WMMCHbgwX_rS0zc4ajS-5b-nPvyrJV_MW61pARwpkg5mMSFnBDYnuu-Vc9Qbnev5tCTQImif08_bHSnzwWjjGycP02rbzHoTWS7KZAYykkXm8eL9yv7nFYo2w2myBvXnH6TAAZdvOopP2dYMtHOiKZp4rrpAkHQit4f5EF_7m_D4Sr-x9O/s640/IMG_7706.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="480" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhT2imaHus0U7WMMCHbgwX_rS0zc4ajS-5b-nPvyrJV_MW61pARwpkg5mMSFnBDYnuu-Vc9Qbnev5tCTQImif08_bHSnzwWjjGycP02rbzHoTWS7KZAYykkXm8eL9yv7nFYo2w2myBvXnH6TAAZdvOopP2dYMtHOiKZp4rrpAkHQit4f5EF_7m_D4Sr-x9O/s320/IMG_7706.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjLbcEFE46ZMyZD6CxjKbp4QZY5NVUPqfEhCHMCbbHAuQzqEgmQQz04m_AU5uuqVQQf38qX0cGwvj5vUFY07nKgB5ZTItvlP0s0IPm67WpMcgbfcu5_tXoTHW84o-5xW5uTeAEk5SHJwlF9RYxZ1HuYU99E77l2zC_GeDa0CZ3HPI-MycrOyTfXjHCAu56/s640/IMG_7719.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="480" data-original-width="640" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjLbcEFE46ZMyZD6CxjKbp4QZY5NVUPqfEhCHMCbbHAuQzqEgmQQz04m_AU5uuqVQQf38qX0cGwvj5vUFY07nKgB5ZTItvlP0s0IPm67WpMcgbfcu5_tXoTHW84o-5xW5uTeAEk5SHJwlF9RYxZ1HuYU99E77l2zC_GeDa0CZ3HPI-MycrOyTfXjHCAu56/s320/IMG_7719.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnis4ekWzGxRWT77y2bsHETs0Vfq6pUdOpq8VcK1y3Sysc0923zE5d4bzw4uSQoxFN6lKxohXDDCj7dwTR1Dz5-2blJaAxsOwK7ujwsuWHIJBDN02daVv6HpQId3F3Re7LTQIM_gnwAVDVusKFpGemBOvLOEEVGyq2vTv5_F5DPXdjYdgSpITgiH6xmSmb/s640/IMG_7714.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="640" data-original-width="480" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnis4ekWzGxRWT77y2bsHETs0Vfq6pUdOpq8VcK1y3Sysc0923zE5d4bzw4uSQoxFN6lKxohXDDCj7dwTR1Dz5-2blJaAxsOwK7ujwsuWHIJBDN02daVv6HpQId3F3Re7LTQIM_gnwAVDVusKFpGemBOvLOEEVGyq2vTv5_F5DPXdjYdgSpITgiH6xmSmb/s320/IMG_7714.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The Crawl will tell much of the story.
