A day at the beach became a turtle hatching experience - Catherine - 01-17-2026

Imagine going to the beach and just relaxing. Then realizing that you are experiencing a turtle hatching. 
It happened to two brothers in Florida.

I am impressed by how the brothers and everyone else reacted to the hatching. They quietly watched, but they did not interfere. 
Their presence may even have protected the hatchlings. That day is one they will remember for their whole lives.
