Yesterday, Nest 1 had a large sunken hole in the center of the nest and a ghost crab hole to the right. This nest may have emerged as early as last Monday evening (a dead hatchling was found on the beach last Tuesday morning).
When we checked the nest the morning, we found one dead hatchling in the ghost crab pile and also what sure looked like some new hatchling tracks: only a few inches of tracks here and there, surrounded by lots of ghost crab tracks.
One thing is for sure - every nest is different!
