Background
Stormy was tagged after nesting on Sapelo Island early in the morning on July 7th. She was the final turtle tagged by our crew this year. It appears that we caught her on her final nesting of this season as, upon release she's swam non-stop up the east coast, and is now nearing the South Carolina/North Carolina border.
