Went down to North Topsail Beach last night to sit a nest of (probably) Loggerhead Sea Turtles, Caretta caretta, for a few hours. Alas, the turtles chose not to hatch last night, so no pictures of them.

I did however catch a few shots of shore birds (not great shots), the sunset (pretty pinks and oranges), the moon (one shot caught a plane crossing the face), and Jupiter with Callisto and Ganymede.

The set is here, on Flickr.

Nice pics!

Isn't Topsail where Jesse Helms had a beach house?

Can't blame them turtles; I wouldn't want to be born near there either  ???
