Info from Licensor: "Most newly hatched turtles make their escape from the nest to the ocean during nighttime hours. These hatchlings were the last to emerge from the nest at an auspicious time – late morning. At this time birds, dogs on the beach, and others may get them before they reach the ocean and have other trials and tribulations to get through. We followed a few feet away until the turtles made it to the water."
