I am loving this

little baby hatchling turtles...
I have had the coolest opportunity to photograph these
little guys...and learn all about them
The stretch of beach that bears the name Archie Carr refuge
is the densest location for nesting turtles in North America.
2nd largest in THe WOrld
It is 20 miles long.
It is in my backyard.
It is beyond awesome that THe National Fish and Wildlife
Foundation have been so active in turtle education in the area.
It is beyond awesome that a random string of events brought
me to participate, photograph, and experience rescuing these guys
I have to admit that this is one pretty cool thing about living
in Florida.
Far better than the 110 degree heat index.
