Share the Beach-Dauphin Island: nesting season over, final numbers

DAUPHIN ISLAND, Ala. (WALA) - Share The Beach - Dauphin Island posted on its Facebook that the 2026 nesting season is over and reported numbers on eggs and hatchlings. Our 2026 nesting season is officially over. Yesterday we excavated our last nest. This nest was found on August 17, after Tropical Storm Bertha. It looked okay after Hurricane Isaias, so we were hopeful after the previous nests were destroyed by Bertha. Unfortunately, out of 120 eggs, only 5 hatched. We’re happy that 5 did make it out - every hatchling is important.
