We have helped over 800 hatchlings to sea in the past two weeks bringing our grand total to over 2000. Our volunteers have been working so hard on morning surveys and hatchling rescue to make this happen. Sixty-one nests have now been inventoried and completed meaning we have 98 nests remaining, so still a lot of work left to do! During our recent inventories, we have seen a twin mid-embryo and a leucistic late embryo, which is a rare and exciting sight!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"638\" src=\"https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Argostoli-Field-Station1-1024x638.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8496\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Argostoli-Field-Station1-1024x638.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Argostoli-Field-Station1-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Argostoli-Field-Station1-150x93.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Argostoli-Field-Station1-768x479.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Argostoli-Field-Station1-1536x957.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Argostoli-Field-Station1-2048x1276.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Since our last update, we have assisted in the rescue of two turtles.

The second turtle was found with a deep head injury which needed further professional aid. Both turtles are now receiving care at the rescue centre in Athens.

Some hatchlings however need an extra helping hand especially when they emerge at the wrong time of day or are found during an inventory, so our team is always ready to quickly help and protect these hatchlings when it\u2019s needed with a total number of hatchlings helped to sea overall being 231 and more than have made it all on their own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"8498\" src=\"https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Lourdas-Field-Station1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8498\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Lourdas-Field-Station1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Lourdas-Field-Station1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Lourdas-Field-Station1-113x150.jpg 113w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Lourdas-Field-Station1-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Lourdas-Field-Station1.jpg 1512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"8499\" src=\"https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Lourdas-Field-Station2-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Lourdas-Field-Station2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Lourdas-Field-Station2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Lourdas-Field-Station2-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Lourdas-Field-Station2-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Lourdas-Field-Station2-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Lourdas-Field-Station2-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Lourdas-Field-Station2.jpg 2016w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Education Programme<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the last 2 weeks, we have been slowly winding down with the education programme as we finished with the family groups and had our last agency group for a couple of months. This last group travelled all the way from South Africa to learn about turtle conservation and collect their volunteering hours, with some of them having never snorkelled before this was an incredible experience especially as they spotted a green sea turtle and a couple of loggerhead turtles. They also completed morning surveys, seeing some morning inventories of our nests that have been hatching for a few days and giving a helping hand to get our hatchlings safely to sea. Our education seasonal core team is now finished and has done an amazing job saying goodbye to Kefalonia and the project until next time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Education-Program-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Education-Program-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Education-Program-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Education-Program-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Education-Program-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Education-Program-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Education-Program-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/wildlifesense.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023-08-27-Education-Program-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Argostoli Field Station Hatchling season is in full swing here in Argostoli!
