Mr T's TurtleBlog. Save the Sea Turtles for Future Generations! Birds of a feather. February 4, 2012. Yesterday afternoon we went birdwatching up a local estuary in a boat. The birds here are beautifully colored but EXTREMELY well camouflaged. Many times when are guide pointed out the various birds to us, we would ask, “Where? Often the bird was just a few feet directly in front of us! We even saw several well hidden crocodiles ranging from a couple of feet to what appeared to be many, many feet! Februar...

Mr T's TurtleBlog. Save the Sea Turtles for Future Generations! February 11, 2012. I’ve been home for a few days, and have started to get back into my routine. As I reflect upon my experience in Costa Rica and the Las Baulas National Park in Playa Grande, I feel blessed and grateful for the opportunity. There are many people and organizations to thank, who have made this trip a success. You’re the BEST! A special thank you to the Leatherback Trust and all the biologists on staff at the Goldring Gunn Mari...

Mr T's TurtleBlog. Save the Sea Turtles for Future Generations! Newer posts →. Dinosaur in the backyard. January 31, 2012. Look what we found in our backyard sunning himself (or herself) – a ctenosaur (teen-o-soar). They resemble iguanas but don’t have the familar green shading that iguanas have. They still look pretty cool! They seem to be quite common here. This one is about two feet long. Home Away from Home. January 31, 2012. January 30, 2012. We’re 1 hour old and 3 inches long! Notice the white spots.

Mr T's TurtleBlog. Save the Sea Turtles for Future Generations! February 3, 2012. On Monday and Wednesday I Skyped into our classroom during periods 4 and 5, and lunch, for those who wanted to be closer to the Costa Rica experience. The biologist staff who participated had a blast talking with our Bert Lynn students, and answering questions. We had guest appearances by several Leatherback and Ridley hatchlings. On Wednesday Mrs. T even showed up in class! This entry was posted in Uncategorized. TheryR...

Howler Monkeys | Mr. T's TurtleBlog
https://turtletambara.wordpress.com/2012/02/06/howler-monkeys
Mr T's TurtleBlog. Save the Sea Turtles for Future Generations! February 6, 2012. There are many monkeys around the center in the trees, making noises in the morning and evening. Even though these monkeys are only the size of a small dog, they make an EXTREMELY loud howl, in a very deep voice. There’s one that particulary likes to literally hang around in low branches, waiting for one of us to feed it. This entry was posted in Uncategorized. 10 responses to “. Kyle E. Per.4.

Excavating Nests | Mr. T's TurtleBlog
https://turtletambara.wordpress.com/2012/02/03/excavating-nests
Mr T's TurtleBlog. Save the Sea Turtles for Future Generations! February 3, 2012. After hatchlings emerge from a nest, we revisit the nest the next day to find out how successful the nest was in terms of what percentage of the eggs hatched. The egg shells are counted, including any unhatched eggs. Any unhatched eggs are opened to determine what stage of development the eggs are when they terminated. These are obviously some of the ones not saved. Sigh …. Hatchling that died inches from surface. Oh that&#...

More hatchlings saved! | Mr. T's TurtleBlog
https://turtletambara.wordpress.com/2012/01/31/more-hatchlings-saved
Mr T's TurtleBlog. Save the Sea Turtles for Future Generations! January 31, 2012. Here are some more hatchlings we discovered … and saved! They were the last of a nest and might not have made it otherwise. We released them last night. These are a different species, the Olive Ridleys. Notice the lack of spots, and you might be able to tell that they are smaller than the leatherbacks. All seven species of sea turtles are endangered to varying levels.
