Nests 30, 31, & 32

Lesley and Tony Gore, their granddaughter, Lexi, and her friends, Olivia and Meagan, and Bill and Susan Miller all got up before sunrise to walk Zone 4. The first crawl they came upon was right in front of the Bird Sanctuary. Sandy MacCoss, with help from Lesley, carefully located Nest 31. The 100 eggs were relocated away from the bird area.

Shortly after calling in this first crawl, another was found between the Bird Sanctuary and the spit. Valerie and Mark Doane probed for eggs and found 133 eggs much deeper than usual. Nest 30 was relocated to a safer location.

Bill Greubel and Anna Wechter walked Zone 3 and immediately found a promising crawl near Boardwalk 6. As they continued their walk, Joshua and Amanda Shilko made it to the beach to help probe and discovered Nest 32. The 124 eggs were relocated to a safer spot. Bill also spotted an obvious in and out crawl near Boardwalk 1 which was marked as a false crawl.
