31 Turtle Nests Marked in South Walton!

[Kurt]

As of July 19, there have been 31 sea turtle nests marked by South Walton Turtle Watch volunteers. Early each morning, volunteers walk South Walton beaches looking for signs of new nests and checking closely for signs of tampering by animals. Nests are clearly marked to keep beachgoers from disturbing them. Hatching is expected to begin this month. Thanks to everyone who works toward protecting one of South Walton's most valuable assets! For more information or to volunteer, please visit: http://southwaltonturtlewatch.org/.

Sweet little turtles, I've been thinking about them the last few days -- thanks for the update!
