On my honeymoon in Broome, hubby and I saw turtle nests all covered up, but never got the chance to see them hatch. Turtles are my favourite marine animal, and I hate that their situation is so tenuous. <br />Magical! :)<br />xxTraceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00409133476452431214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1817753888677310454.post-80757154080486328562012-11-13T17:19:22.095+08:002012-11-13T17:19:22.095+08:00how amazing!! 1 in 2000 is very very bad odds :( I...how amazing!! 1 in 2000 is very very bad odds :( I love turtles.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02519482775650749822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1817753888677310454.post-51398249026864311842012-11-13T15:07:23.578+08:002012-11-13T15:07:23.578+08:00That would have been such a magical moment - you m...That would have been such a magical moment - you made me wish I was there with you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1817753888677310454.post-38534200376551218472012-11-13T13:06:07.624+08:002012-11-13T13:06:07.624+08:00yeah I did have a little issue with that as well b...yeah I did have a little issue with that as well but you can't have it all I guess. They also nest quite heavily out at Dundee. The beach we were at yesterday was Casuarina, down near the rudey nudey part. They did say that where we were yesterday wasn't one of the biggest nesting locations around due to the heavy traffic of the beach, which was one of the reason they manage it all so carefully. For the most part all the hatching and going to the water is done naturally.
