Cold and windy night

This morning the weather station at the marinelife center recorded a low temperature of 48 degrees. It sure did feel a lot colder than that out there on the ATV all night! I did spot one turtle though! Kalindi was spotted at around 1:30am nesting near the Seminole Golf Course. She did not lay any eggs though. She crawled up the beach, dug an egg chamber, waited about 2 hours and then covered up her empty "nest" Not really sure why she was unable to lay any eggs. Maybe she just wasn't ready to lay eggs?? Kelly and I watched a leatherback named "Ridgy" do the same thing for a few hours during the 2001 season and the first turtle of the 2004 season did not lay any eggs either. Since she is a regular nester on Juno Beach, (she has was first seen on Juno Beach during the 2003 season and was our first one year recapture - nesting again in 2004) Maybe we will see her again.
