It’s Hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata, Kare) nesting season once again. Several islands have reported nesting activities on beaches as females crawl up onto land to nest. After a false start in August, Cousin Island had its first egg-laying female - another untagged female - in September.
The South-East trade winds, known as "Vann Swet" in Creole, which sweep across our islands from June to September bring about many changes. Weather and sea conditions get rough. Excursions to the ocean are reduced. Boat crossings get bumpy.
Clean up the world? There’s a day for that! Each September, millions of volunteers gather in nearly 200 countries to remove as much trash from the environment as they can. Among the largest civic movements in the world, its goal is to tackle the global waste crisis and to remind us that we have a responsibility to protect and preserve the world we live in.
Despite not being on major migratory flyways such as those on the continent, we get migratory birds in Seychelles. In certain seasons, shorebirds and waders can be seen.
Since 1998.
