LIGHTS OUT MAY – OCTOBER

Our volunteer group has experimented with various shade-cloths over the years in an effort to shield the nests from the light pollution that causes such harm.

When the hatchlings emerge from their nest, they mainly use their sense of sight to orient towards the sea.

Hatchlings typically emerge after dusk and follow the brighter horizon which is normally the moon reflecting on the ocean surface.
