+ New to the nest
Mote Marine Laboratory’s Sea Turtle Patrol was in for a surprise Tuesday morning when it came across tracks leading to the first nest of the season. Close to 100 eggs were laid on the beach near Sunset Beach Condos by a Loggerhead sea turtle. Nesting season runs May 1 through Oct. 31.
