Once the protected nest emerges, there will be an inventory. This will be done a specified number of days after the emergence (majority of the hatchlings made it out of the nest and in the Ocean.)
The results will be documented and entered into a national data base to be used to help in the future of the endangered Sea Turtle species.
Anxious and excited STP Volunteers getting ready to see how this protected endangered Sea Turtle nest has done. Volunteers from NMB, Briarcliffe and No man's land are out walking 7 days a week from May until August sometimes longer. They walk through the good and bad. Some days are beautiful with a spectacular sunrises and very pleasant people on the beaches interested in learning more about the endangered Sea Turtles. And somedays are wind and rain, the beaches are always walked unless lightning or unsafe weather is present. But they are always cheery and excited no matter what the weather as they all know how important protecting the endangered Sea Turtle nest is in helping to save the endangered Sea Turtle species.
The specifics of the nest and what we are doing is given so all know what is happening. This is done within the guidelines and permits required to work with the endangered Sea Turtle Species.
If anything of interest is found in the nest, it will be shared so all can see. This egg was not viable so everyone will get to see this ping pong sized egg.
