The turtles have been nesting pretty steady this week. We had three turtles three nights in a row. We saw a lot of regular Juno Beach nesters like Tuga, Espina, Hillary, and Reeves. On Tuesday night, there was a new turtle by the Seminole Golf Course. She probably was one of the loudest and deepest sounding turtles we have heard this year. We named her Janis, after Janis Joplin. Wednesday night started off pretty slow and we were thinking we weren't going to get a turtle. On my last pass I found Shelly nesting by the ramp in front of the office. Shelly had not been seen since 2003, so it was nice to have her come back after all these years. It's awesome to think about where she has been and what she has been doing these past five years. I'm sure she has traveled many miles since she was last seen nesting in Juno Beach.
