| Turtle on her way to the sea |

| She was a bit late and had to go over the stones, as the tide was already out, poor thing; |
 |
| Off she goes, only her hump is still visible |

Gorgeous photos! The island looks like a giant turtle itself, floating in the ocean.
ReplyDeleteGreat sequence of photos. What a gorgeous island. I'm glad the turtle made it back to the sea.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful skies, and love the turtle's journey.
ReplyDeleteYou were so lucky to be at that exact spot when the turtle was heading from shore to go to the sea. I love this image!

Such calming tropical scenes. It is horrible to think a cyclone is heading that way.
ReplyDeleteIs this island protected?
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful shot of the island! Love the blue blue sea. The island looks small though. But I am sure the place is wonderful. And glad to see that the turtle made it back to the sea.
ReplyDeleteAnn, I think so, boats can't come in because it is surrounded by a coral reef; and also because of the turtles nesting there. The island is also full
ReplyDeleteof birds. People and supplies are flown in by a small plane.
What a great island spot. I'll have to look the place up and google earth for a closer look. I wonder haw many thousands and thousands of years turtles have made this journey. These shots make for a nice photo essay.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful experience you must have had there, T. I can only imagine the beauty! Thankfully there are places such as this.
ReplyDeleteWonderful Sky Watch post, Titania! Amazing views!
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday
Hi Titania and thank you for these images! They woke up my imagination, and I almost felt that sand under my feet...
ReplyDeleteaw! sea turtles are one of my favorite animals! I used to work with them, so i'm a little biased :) Great shots!
ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky....I have tried several times to meet sea turtles but they always fail to show up.
ReplyDeleteSo schön wieder mal einen Abstecher nach down under zu machen. Ich habe ja sehr vieles nachzulesen. Inselimpressionen faszinieren immer, darum habe ich mit diesem post zuerst angefangen um wieder bei dir à jour zu sein.
ReplyDeleteLiebs Grüessli,
