Turtle hatching season

Less than an hour away from the noise and bustle of the city there is something like this happening!
The awkward turtle from Simon Kearns on Vimeo.
It is turtle hatching season on our kite beach!
After work we took a 45 minute drive north to go see the brand new turtles hatching and making a break for the ocean, as you do!

It always amazes me how the baby turtles find their way back to the sea. I have heard in Qatar the turtle breeding area has been secluded and is always monitored by some volunteers so that the eggs aren't stolen or the babies aren't distracted.
Do you know Mr. and Mrs. Gillespie, the britsh couple, who have been volunteering themselves for this cause for some years here.
