A Loggerhead turtle starting to construct her nest at Gnejna Bay was captured on video by an Environment & Resources Authority (ERA) officer. This marks the fifth turtle discovered at this bay.
The nesting site was found by a member of the public who informed a Nature Trust volunteer in the area.
Following the discovery, the site was immediately closed off to ensure the nest remained protected.
The ERA encourages the public to report any turtle activity and to recognize the importance of acting responsibly around nests to prevent causing any harm to the turtle eggs and hatchlings.
