Using sticks to probe the sand, they dig with their hands when they find soft spots, sometimes unearthing fifty or sixty eggs from a single nest. The eggs are described as perfectly round, white, and slightly smaller than English walnuts. The boys celebrate their find by preparing a “famous fried-egg feast” that night, with another planned for the following morning.
