Loggerhead Turtles in Georgia
Any day now Georgia’s first loggerhead sea turtle nest of the season will be found on a barrier island beach. “It’s like clockwork,” DNR Sea Turtle Program Coordinator Mark Dodd said. “We always get our first nest during the first week of May.” That nest will likely be the first of many. Population modeling shows loggerhead nesting tracking a three-year pattern, and this is an up year. The state’s modern-day record of 4,071 nests was set in 2022.
