After a slow several weeks, the numbers of momma turtles laying eggs on Holden Beach has really picked up....especially these past three days and each day it kept getting better and better. Friday there were two new nests (# 25 and #26) along with three false crawls (when the momma turtles comes onto the beach but doesn’t lay eggs). Saturday there were new three nests. Sunday there were four nests. Momma turtles are expected to continue laying eggs for at least six more weeks.
