Yaniklar: hatchling time in September

In Yaniklar we had about 110 nests, of which 40 still remain to hatch. This is a near record over the last 20 years. Does this mean the first hatchlings we helped reach the sea back in the early 1990s are now returning in greater numbers? We like to think so! Every nest is a new and different challenge: yesterday we released 60 hatchlings that were trapped in an air cavity underneath a big stone. The weather in the evenings and mornings is getting noticeably cooler. So how about a project logo sweatshirt for next year to complement our T-shirts?

This is what it looks like when hatchlings emerge in the early morning. Can you count them? We have to, despite only a few hours of sleep since the last night shift.
