Mother sea turtle took the long way back to the ocean!
She must have been in a hurry to get “home” because she dropped one last solo egg on top of the sand on her way back to the ocean.
Lauri L found the eggs quickly in her very first attempt at egg hunting!! Congratulations Lauri!!
Thanks to all of the volunteers of Team 18!!
