It is nesting season once again on our beaches. On any given night on a certain stretch of beach from Juno to Jupiter, you can see these massive reptiles approach the shoreline to lay their eggs.
The Loggerhead’s journey is an incredible one. As a hatchling, it leaves the coast of Florida and rides the Gulf Stream up towards the Arctic and ultimately swims around the entire North Atlantic across to Africa and back to the beach where she was born. The odds are stacked against her; just one in ten thousand turtles survive the journey. She faces many hazards but her calling comes, and she returns to her beach. When she finally reaches the same shores of Florida where she was hatched, 25 years will have passed.
The cycle of nature begins again. It is a rare and very special opportunity to witness such a unique call of nature.
