WELCOME TO BMS!!

What did you do this summer that was fun?

I spent a week at the beach for my daughters wedding.  While I was there, a nest of sea turtles hatched!  It was so much fun watching them scramble toward the ocean!  117 baby sea turtles made their way to the ocean.  

Did you know sea turtles are considered endangered!  That means that they may go extinct in the near future.  Can you image a world without sea turtles? We can adopt a sea turtle or a nest and try to save them.

Check out the PANSTARRS comet tonight!

The PANSTARRS comet will be visible all month in the west just after sunset.  Use binoculars, a telescope, or your awesome eyes to check it out.  Here how to find it: right after the sun sets, find the crescent moon in the west, look at the chart above to find its location on each date in March.
