There here!!!!!!!

Walking along the beach yesterday and we found these tracks in the sand !!!!!! someone driving a tractor out of the surf? an invasion by the Indonesians ? Boat people ? Lost Kiwi's ? all wrong.

The Turtles are here.

The season has started and so far at least 5 turtles have made it up on China beach to lay their eggs. Apparently it is very early for them and is usually a sign that the wet is going to be long and wild LOL. Gary (neighbour) has suggested that we get involved in the process of keeping track of them and we probably will do it. It means an eco course at Rocky for 5 days and lots of walking along the beach at night but it sounds like a great thing to help out with.

Yes of course, blaming the poor turtles for the tracks in the sand. Be honest and tell us why you couldn't make your way home in a upright position LOL
