What a beautiful day on the beach!  Several intrepid N.E.S.T. volunteers made the trip far south to Oak Island, NC, where we said goodbye to loggerheads Nemo & Louise and greens Jo, Sandy, Ellie, and Shadow.  A great big turtle thanks to Oak Island Sea Turtle Protection for hosting and volunteering at this event.
