3 turtles which I assume we're diamondback terrapin on log in marsh
Low tide
Lots of people on beach and fishing but no one on flats at first or on wrong side of rope. One unleashed dog but it stays right around the people. Sadly before long people came out of to flats scaring tge few birds that were there. I'll have to remember in the future to do this trip on a weekday.
