Sea Turtle Report


It's sea turtle nesting season here on Marco Island. Pictured here is a nest that is about ready to hatch. We've been checking on it daily... in an unofficial capacity of course, though the official turtle-lady volunteer seems to appreciate our interest! We're hopeful that she did not mistake the kids' sand masterpiece as a "false crawl"... it was very realistic!

Click here for photos from our beach walks the past couple of days. It's extremely cloudy here this week, and there have been a couple of crazy-windy thunderstorms, but what kind of Oregonians would we be if we let a little wind and rain keep us from the beach!

It's such a nice way to start and end the day!
