Crawl on segment B this morning. Very windy on the beach, most of the crawl above the HTL is windblown and hard to see. Outgoing crawl in the wet sand is very visible. This turtle crawled up the wide beach, started to make a body pit, moved up a few feet, started a new body pit, moved up a few more feet, started a third body pit, then moved up to the base of the dune and turned to crawl back to the water. Was she being watched and disturbed each time she moved? Shallow body pit at the base of the dunes, probed and probed but no egg cavity was found. False crawl #2.
Outgoing Crawl
Incoming crawl, turtle stopped three times before turning at the base of the dunes
Shallow body pit, wind blown, crawl is almost completely gone
Incoming crawl is almost completely covered up by the blowing wind
Outgoing tracks are hardly visible until the wet sand
Hoping but no eggs are found
Thank you Segment B walkers....Lets hope she comes back
