Loggerhead turtle, Vyzakia Beach


Sad to see a loggerhead turtle washed up on the beach today, just 1km from our apartment near Protaras, Cyprus. At least it was an opportunity to have a good look at this magnificent animal which was around 1m long. It was clearly very recently deceased with no signs of decomposition, predation or injury. Loggerhead turtles lay their eggs on beaches in the nearby area, but are not usually seen in winter.
