Today we saw yellow markers for loggerhead sea turtle nests at Canaveral National Seashore near Kennedy Space Center. In summer, biologists mark almost all 4,500 nests along the park’s 24 miles of seashore. Screen is put over the nests to protect the eggs from predators. It appears to have been an excellent year for the turtles!
