This morning brought a wave of excitement for nature lovers – the second one this week – as Wildlife Rescue Team Malta announced the discovery of the second turtle nest of the season!

During a routine early morning patrol, volunteers spotted the markings of two turtle crawls on Għadira’s middle beach. Acting quickly, the team notified officials from ERA – the Environment & Resources Authority, who joined them on-site. Together, the two teams confirmed the presence of a nesting chamber.

The Wildlife Rescue Team thanked Claudia and Tom, whose sharp eyes and dedication made this discovery possible, and ERA for their rapid response and continued support.
