A snapping turtle nest opened up next to the Wachtmeister Field Station last week. If you came to any of our suimmer campfires we probaby took a moment to share this nest with you. Last summer, there were a few nests that were dug up or hatched by the end of the year. This time around the nest lasted until mid-September, and a dozen or more babies made it out.
