Even though loggerheads are the most common sea turtle in Florida, they are both state and federally listed as a threatened species. Adults mate in the shallow waters off the coast then come ashore to lay eggs in the dunes above the high tide line. The nesting season starts in May and continues through the summer. The eggs incubate in the sand for about 45-60 days before the hatchlings emerge and crawl to the sea. Both egg laying and hatching usually occur at night.

What a special moment you captured! The Kemp's Ridley sea turtle nests on the Texas coast of the Gulf of Mexico but most nests are moved to incubation and then there are public releases early mornings when they hatch. That is great to see but what you experienced....I can only say, wow and how much I would love to see that for myself!
