Tammy Wynette Dies At 55. What started out as a peaceful evening catnap on the couch in her Nashville, Tennessee home, became the âFirst Lady of Country Musicâ Tammy Wynetteâs final hour on Monday, April 6th, 1998.
Turtle Bay, Oahu. Turtle Bay is located between Protection Point and Kuilima Point on the North Shore of the island of O'ahu in the U.S. state of Hawaii. The bay is named after the large number of green sea turtles that inhabit the area and who used to lay their eggs in the sand on the beach years ago.
Here in Hawaii, three species of sea turtles are considered native: the green (Honu), the hawksbill (Honuâea) and the leatherback. Two other species, the loggerhead and the olive ridley, are sometimes observed in Hawaiian waters. The Hawaiian green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas) is the most common sea turtle in Hawaiian waters. It feeds on marine plants in shallow coastal waters throughout the Islands. Green sea turtles are primarily vegetarian and eat limu (algae) growing underwater on coral reefs and rocks in shallow waters. The upper shell (carapace) of the adult is dark with olive or gold flecks.
