Background

Charlie is our first satellite turtle of 2010. She laid her first nest of the season on 2nd June and came back for her second clutch on the 15th. She swam back out to sea in the early hours of the 16th June with a transmitter firmly in place and has since been back three times to lay subsequent clutches.

Charlie was selected for her long breeder history here at Alagadi. This is her 5th breeding year since 1995. She was most recently here in 2006.
