A 50mm Life

Keeping It Green

Turtle/Laniakea Beach is famous for having sea turtles visit during the warm hours of the day to dry themselves out, get some sun and rest up a bit. To tell you the truth, it’s not the place to snorkel and see these beautiful creatures in the water, as the waves are usually rough, the current strong, or the visibility is poor in comparison to Shark’s Cove, just down the road. But it’s possible.

On this particular day, there were three turtles on the beach sunning, and one in the breakers looking for a boyfriend before her 500 mile trip back to the French Frigate Shoals where she’ll lay some eggs if she finds a male before then.

I couldn’t decide which crop I liked best, so here goes another one on Flickr (see below).

Have a great week!
