More Pix of Sea Turtles

This is where I'd like to go conduct further research on sea turtles. I'll just need some sort of a grant...(It's actually the hotel on Maui where our friends stayed. Isn't it gorgeous?)


While they were there, they visited a marine biology center, where they were able to touch baby sea turtles on their first birthday. I liked this pictures because it shows their amazing eyes, which have three lenses or lids. Also it shows their amazing flippers and how they can't retract into their shells like land turtles can.

This is just a free swimming baby sea turtle. Martha said they can move really fast, but what I liked about the sea turtles in the Albuquerque Aquarium was how they just seemed to glide through the water without a care in the world.
