Enjoy the photo journey of baby turtles hatching on Hawk's Bay Beach:
It usually begins with hawks, dogs and crows announcing the turtles arrival.
They begin to dig their way out. Slowly...
Slowly…
Slowly…
The hole is deep and the climb arduous.
Sometimes just one appears.
Others bunch together, pushing through to the surface.
Sometimes two...
Sometimes three…
Once free from the sand, the crawl to the ocean begins.
It's a long, tiring trail for these little guys.
Footprints from camels in the sand feel like giant crevices.
Off to life in the adventurous sea!!!
thankful for turtles,
