Blogging from A to Z April Challenge: H is for Hawksbill Turtle

 


Opening up my post on the Hawksbill Sea Turtle with a short video on some turtles in Hawaii. The endangered turtle likes hanging out in tropical reefs.  It is also  a reminder that reptiles don't just live on land. I have been fortunate to see a few sea turtles in the wild but I don't know if they were Hawksbill.

How nice to have seen any sea turtle in the wild! I may have seen one at the Monterey Bay Aquarium years ago. You'd think I'd remember something like that. Now, I need to go see the photos to check my memory!

How fascinating. I didn't know about these turtles, but I certainly hope efforts to save them are successful.

Seeing sea turtles in the wild on four different occasions have been absolute high points of my life. They are so beautiful! I have seen hawksbill once, and the others were green, I believe.

Mike,

I always imagined how fun it would be to hold onto a sea turtle's back as it moves through the water. It might not like that too much but it's always something I thought might like if I weren't such a scaredy Cathy.
