Check it Out… A nesting Loggerhead!

Steve Matchett spotted a Loggerhead coming out of the water around 5:30 one morning this week.  He continued to watch her (from a distance) climb up the beach, dig her nest, lay her eggs, cover the nest, and return to the ocean.  He shared that he was absolutely thrilled to be able to witness this, and it was his very first time seeing a nesting sea turtle!

Reminder: Be sure to keep your distance and leave plenty of space for the turtle.  Although his photos look like he was close, it’s just his fantastic camera and lens.

Thank you, Steve, for sharing these AMAZING photos!
