It's nearing the end of the summer nesting season for green turtles in Australia. Along the Great Barrier Reef beaches & islands, most females have laid their last clutches and are migrating back to their feeding grounds, some over 3000kms away (they won't nest for another 5-7 years!). Many of the eggs are hatching & hatchlings are emerging from the sand to start their epic life journey of travelling ocean currents around the World for 10-15 years, before settling on a home reef (often thousands of km away), & then 30 years later travelling back to her home beach to nest! Amazing! Truly fascinating ancient mariners! 💕✌🏻️💙🌏
