Hugh Fagen & Jim Wilson are collecting data from Loggerhead Turtle nest at Ft. DeSoto, FL  Posted by Picasa

The fire ants and the racoons were scavaging this nest that hatched yesterday. The rangers will dig up the nest looking for unhatched eggs and counting the empty shells. I believe this was nest #9 at Ft. DeSoto. It's been a bad year for nesting and that can probably be attributed to the bad red tides we've had this year.
