Waties Island is a 2.7 mile private undeveloped barrier island at the border of North and South Carolina. Under a permit from SC Department of Natural Resources to help protect the sea turtle, we are at it again this season!

WHAT A MORNING WE HAD ON WATIES!




No nest or crawl, but


we had an absolutely beautiful morning as you can see by this sunrise. The humidity and the temperature were down.


The tide was out and the water temperature was warm.








It wasn't just beautiful, it was full of some very interesting things.







We saw shells and Sea Pork,










Sea Squirts and Sea Stars





and sun glasses like we had never seen before.
If they weren't all so different, you would have thought that a crate of them had been lost at sea.


We would bend down to pick one up and spot three or four more. We even through the broken ones away. We'll post the number of sun glasses we found after we get the count.



With so much on the beach, we never got back to the shed till 8 a.m.
