Nest 89
Rachel Carter called in to report "the craziest crawl I have ever seen between boardwalks 2 & 3." Bill and Eileen Middleton happily went to probe and after investigating her winding tracks found Nest 89. (It has been 2 weeks since we identified Nests 87 & 88.) They left the nest in situ as it is well above the high tide line. The Walkers this morning were Rachel and Marshall Carter with daughters Nettie and Neva, Lisa Hand and Gloria Wilson - Carter's neighbor.
