An ancient shell, a steady pace,
She carves a cradle in this space.
With quiet strength, she digs the sand,
To leave her legacy on land.

Snapping Turtle Nesting

Spent the first part of my day supervising Chilli the red-eared slider outside for hours as she nested and FINALLY laid her eggs

She's been restless for over a week. I'm so happy she can finally relax

Hatchlings do not always emerge all at once, and that helps them survive. Small bursts spread risk. Near nesting beaches, keep it dark, quiet, and hands-off.

A nesting turtle near porch lights needs calm, space, and darkness. Step back, switch off safe lights, and call local responders if she’s blocked or disoriented.

Numerous sea turtles offshore this morning. This one surfaced to breathe fairly close 😊 I could also see quite a few “crawls” on the beach where nests were dug 👍 #seaturtles #beaches #sunrise #BrevardCountyBeaches #turtlenesting #outriggercanoe

Sea turtle nests usually don’t open in one perfect burst. Hatchlings often emerge in waves, and that staggered timing helps survival. Near nesting beaches: keep distance, lights low, and let the process finish. Save this. #SeaTurtles #HatchlingEmergence #TurtleNesting #MarineConservation #CoastalSt…

This nesting season, help protect our sea turtles! 🐢 Stay clear of marked nests, report disturbances, and educate others. Every action counts! #TurtleNesting #MarineConservation #ProtectOurTurtles #EcoFriendlyTravel #BeachAwareness

Most people accidentally harm hatchlings this way: leaving gear and tracks across hatchling corridors. Before your next sunrise beach walk: 1) stick to wet sand 2) stash gear off the run 3) use red-filter light only. Save this. #HatchlingCorridor #SeaTurtles #TurtleNesting #BeachStewardship #RedLig…
