Field Notes

Description:

Came across this endangered sunbathing Green Sea Turtle after a day in Kukio Bay on the Big Island.

Habitat:

Kukio Bay, Big Island of Hawaii, Pacific Ocean

Notes:

Unfortunately, I waterlogged my underwater camera before I could get any footage of us swimming with the incredible amounts of turtles earlier that day. We got lucky and came across this beauty on as we were leaving the beach on our last day.
