Description

This is a repost of an early posting from about 3 years ago. The original photo, about 15 years old, has been deleted because it had to be cropped so much, to meet RRÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s requirements. I have better tools now so you can see the whole photo and full details. This was a release of a batch of incubated baby sea turtles. About 200 and about 4 inches (10cm) long. They were making a break for it before the sea birds spotted them. They had to be released, on the same beach, where the eggs were harvested because they must return to the same beach 20 to 25 years in the future, to lay their own eggs. Isn't nature amazing? Do zoom! Thanks for stopping by my gallery, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments. They are very much appreciated. Dana

Wonderful capture! It looks like they are just a bit confused as to which way they need to go.

WONDERFUL!!! Nature is indeed marvellous, it's just some humans that try to put a spanner in the works.

This is a great shot Dana! They're all thinking for themselves, I don't think there are even two going the same direction.
