Good turtle night!

Last night was our busiest night this season, we saw 5 turtles! The night started off a little rough, the high tide made it difficult for us to get through most of the survey area. As soon as we were able to get on our way Chris spotted two turtles in MacArthur Beach State Park, Snowbird and Eve, and I found a new turtle near the Reef Club in Jupiter. Lisa named the new turtle Katabatik after her cousin's sailboat. Katabatic means "down hill wind" in Greek and it seemed very appropriate for the cool, breezy night. After seeing those three turtles, we kinda thought we were done for the night but then Chris called with another new turtle that Kelly named Elizabeth. Then I spotted one more new turtle in front of the Reef Club named Irie, which refers to positive emotions and peaceful vibrations. It was a very exciting, busy night and it seems that the season is really starting to pick up now.
