Twenty-four and counting! As you can see from the chart and Google Map photo, our little stretch of beach is starting to gain new sea turtle nests almost everyday. We're still anxiously awaiting the hatching of the two Leatherback nests that should be hatching any day now. We initially used last year's average number of days for all nests, but were informed by one of the EAI employees recently that the Leatherback nests may take up to 70 days, as opposed to an average of 45-60 days for the Loggerhead nests. So much for averages, but the 55 day average should hold true for most of the Loggerhead nests. It won't be long now!
