[Dtwg] DTWG: have your terrapins started nesting yet?

[pmdunn13 at gmail.com]

Greetings,

 

At Talbot Islands State Park, near Jacksonville Florida, we found our first
nest April 26 and now have a total of 12 intact nests.  Last year we had
over 335 nests.

 

Team Terrapin monitors 5 or 6 days a week and we are volunteers for the
North Florida Land Trust under the supervision of Emily Dunn.

 

Best regards,

 

Paul Dunn

Fellow terrapiners:

In the past springs we've been able to get folks who monitor terrapin
nesting to report when nesting starts, this is very helpful to those of us
in the north because it helps us anticipate when to start looking.  So can
we do that again?

Who has nesting started?   I saw a report that Jekyll Island started today.
Anyone else?
