Information and Images from the Flagler Turtle Patrol (April 21, 2022)

Turtle season has officially started in Flagler Beach!!!! Yeah!!! We have two leatherback nests in Flagler beach!!! They leave big beautiful nests. An extremely rare sick Kemps Ridley washed up near the pier. They must have known that the citizens of Flagler beach would come to the rescue! Thank you for calling FWC and turtle patrol so we could assist this rare turtle. Off to the turtle hospital they went! Send our turtle lots of love and prayers for healing!
