Sea turtle monitoring

My crew (Jennifer, Erica, and two teachers on a short term basis) and I have been working out in the field for my research. Right now, we're on Maui for 2 weeks waiting for two turtles. Basically, we sit on the beach from 8 pm to 5 am patrolling the beach every 1 or 2 hours waiting for only 1 female! She hasn't shown up yet and it's been 8 nights! The second turtle is expected between Thursday and Sunday so we should have some excitement soon.
