Mary and I lived on the beach for over 20 years in St Johns County, North Florida. Every year, the HUGE sea turtles would lay their eggs directly in front of our home. The area would immediately be roped off. We would get notices, and even warnings, to not turn our ocean side lights on. Although we occasionally would witness a dead GIGANTIC turtle on the beach, we never saw the babies hatch and scurry into the ocean.
Today, some of our best friends, and employees, Ozzie and Paula took a phone video of about 80 babies scurrying into the ocean from their nest in St Augustine. They were at the right place at the right time! Everyone formed a line to keep the birds from getting them until the made it!
