Turtle Tracks 2011
Hi Folks! WELCOME HOME!
It's that time again and this year loggerhead sea turtles are *jammin'* to get in and lay their beautiful nests.
6 nests for our small sector "Laguna Key" by mid-June is thrilling!
You can also get info on Laguna Key Team activity and all the other teams across Alabama by going to the Alabama "Share the Beach Volunteer Program" site at
alabamaseaturtles.com
!!!EXCITING!!! NEW PROJECT!
You can now track Alabama's 10 tagged turtles via satellite by visiting seaturtle.org. There is lots of nifty turtle stuff going on here but you won't want to miss the travels of Ella, Ileana, Katherine and (as yet unnamed) as we hope they will visit Alabama beaches again and again.
