Also, sadly, I believe this will be my last Video Monday post for a while. Seems I have exhausted quite a bit of my video resources and now I’m getting a bunch of repeat film. Hopefully I can bring the column back this summer with new vids.
Don’t fret! I have plans for a new column to take its place next week! Make sure to check back!
I can never pass up a hatching video. Seeing all those beautiful little baby turtles fight there way up and out of their nests to the water never ceases to amaze me. This particular video is about 7 minutes long, but quite fun to watch.

I love seeing turtle videos taken by divers. This one is particularly happy, just as the title states. The music selected for the video is pretty happy, too. It’s worth the two minutes of your time to watch.
This is an interesting video on prehistoric giant sea turtles in the area of New York with water overlays of current New York.
Today you get not one, but two excellent turtle-related videos!
