Olive Ridley

Leaving for home into the sunrise

In a nest, arround 150-200 eggs

Paused for a breath while returning back to sea..

Bibhav's great work

Mating on sea
The Cycle of Mating, Nesting and Hatching of Olive Ridley Turtles is an annual ritual on 3 special locations in Odisha. It is attended by over 2.5 Lakh turtles every year making it the second largest congregation of Turtles to nest after Costa Rica... Mr.Bibhav Behera of Odisha had been documenting their behaviour from Jan 09 to April 09 & finding out more about them...
