The Thursday Volunteers with our new LOA, Melissa F started the day with a glorious morning. No turtle activity but lots, and lots of trash, especially balloons. They did discover some large items. These items included a long board with siding material and a crab cage.
The amount of trash could be due to the recent King Tide this area experienced over the weekend. Melissa also reported a number of jellies on the beach.
They did observe raccoon tracks at the entrance to the beach.
Good Luck to our volunteers - Leslie
