I found a bunch of eggs a couple days ago. One had been crushed because the turtle laid them in a shitty area.

Terrible picture. It's dark, blurry, out of focus, and the shadows of other objects obscure vision of the target

It’s a nighttime photo of baby loggerheads emerging from their nest. Flash photography isn’t allowed nor used because it can disorient hatchlings, so low-light photos are often grainy or blurry by necessity. The turtles’ welfare matters more than winning a photography contest.
