lucky night

Whether it was the lucky shoes or the lucky dog, we ended up seeing 5 turtles! On our very first pass, Sara spotted Icy going back in the water by the Reef Club. We were surprised that she would be finished nesting that early in the night, but after seeing what she had done it kinda looked like it was a false crawl. We didn't end up seeing her again so she may have gone to another beach to nest or might be back tonight.

Next, I found Rhoda already covering in front of Ocean Mall in Singer Island. I knew it was her before I even checked her tags because of the extensive covering that she had done. Every time we see her she does a very good job of hiding her eggs and leaves a big mess behind. On her way back to the ocean, she was blocked by several beach chairs and did a couple circles trying to get around them. A nice man visiting from Maine helped me move the chairs out of her way so she could safely return.
