In Search of Diamondback Terrapins 


on Sandy Neck 

with 
Nina Coleman and Ian Ives 







In summer, rare Diamondback Terrapins emerge from the Great Marsh to lay their eggs in the dunes of Sandy Neck. 




Join Ian Ives, Director of Mass Audubon's Long Pasture Wildlife Sanctuary, and Nina Coleman, Manager at Sandy Neck, as we search for signs of nests and tracks of these amazing and mysterious turtles. Learn about the headstart program helping the tiny terrapins. 




Meet at the gatehouse. Parking is free for participants. 




Difficulty: Easy 


Please wear sturdy walking shoes, as we'll be walking through sand and across uneven terrain.
