lats week both the leatherbacks and the loggerheads were nesting really good. We were averaging two or three leatherbacks and more than eighty loggerheads each night - things were rocking! For the past two days, no leatherbacks have shown up and only a few (30-40) loggerheads have nested. I imagine the cooler water over the past few days has been keeping them away. I was lucky enough to watch the first green turtle nest on Juno Beach last night at about 2am. She crawled out of the water directly in front of me and was one the beach for a few hours digging an enormous nest.
Only a few more weeks to go this season. Stay tuned!
