I didn't know that. Mother nature is amazing.

Well, cross your fingers, everybody...I'm not taking any extraordinary measures to protect the nest, but I will watch it for signs of pilferage and avoid running the lawnmower over it...thanks to winston for the very informative webpage, from what I could glean from it we shouldn't get our hopes too high...snappers take the approach of live long & reproduce a lot with the understanding that most of the eggs will not survive to hatch, & most that do hatch will be eaten before they mature...all nature demands is to produce one more like yourself by the time you die...db is right, nature is simply amazing...


I'll keep everyone posted here.
