  • During my stay in Trinidad, one female Leatherback Sea Turtle, Dermochelys coriacea, became disoriented after nesting and entered a clearwater river instead of heading back into the ocean. Working with Grande Riviere Nature Tour Guide Association and Turtle Village Trust representatives, we were able to turn the female Leatherback around towards the beach. She left the creek, crawled over the hot sand and swam into the surf. Image available as a premium quality aluminum print ready to hang.
