This nest was in the Miramar Beach area, near Hidden Dunes and Gulf Pines, when we arrived in the morning to do our walk and check the nest we found it had hatched but most of the hatchlings had gone toward the lights of hidden dunes and a few to the lights of a home. We all went looking for hatchlings and only found 9 and 3 badly injured hatchlings. Most were taken by either birds or ghost crabs. It is so sad to see what lights do.
