After seven months in northeastern waters, some North Atlantic right whales have traveled more than 1,000 miles back to the coastal waters of the Carolinas, Georgia and Florida.

Despite their dwindling numbers, the right whales still head south during calving season, which lasts from mid-November to mid-April.

The endangered whales have already started swimming through waters on the South Carolina and Georgia coastline.

Researchers from the Clearwater Marine Aquarium Research Institute sighted a whale and her calf five miles off the coast of Sapelo Island, Georgia. In November, another mom-calf pair were spotted by a boater north of Charleston off Cape Romain, South Carolina. Read the full story here: bit.ly/49BV3FV

Exciting news greeted us on the beach this morning. The first nest on Hilton Head (not the first laid) and the FIRST nest in the state of SC emerged last night. Look at all those tracks headed out to sea!

You can see in the photo, a large depression in the center of the marked area, forms as the ceiling of the nest begins to collapse. This occurs as the first group of hatchlings emerge and make their way to sea. Additional groups of hatchlings may emerge from the nest, but this is what we love to see, a large group headed in the same direction. Happy hatch day HHI! MTP566.
