nest..
This makes me so sick to my stomach.
So many here in Fla have fought for so long and so hard to keep lights off on our beaches in the nesting period ..from Hotels and restaurants, and condo's ...so the turtles don't get confused of where the horrizon is...so they can always get back to sea..in the very early mornings ..
it just makes me sick.
we rope off the eggs on the beach ..and people stay away from them so they can not be disturbed..
Last year my beach had 5 nests in the last week of April going into May..right in my backyard......this year none.
