Sea turtles nest on Tyndall beaches
Danielle Bumgardner, 325th Civil Engineer Squadron Environmental Flight biologist, finds a turtle egg at Tyndall Air Force Base, Fla., June 22, 2016. Onshore threats to eggs and hatchlings include ghost crabs, coyotes, raccoons, opossums, dogs, feral cats, seagulls, wading birds, crows, eagles and egg poachers. Biologists like Bumgardner find and protect the turtle nests to ensure the hatchlings have a chance to make it to adulthood. (U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Cody R. Miller/Released)
