Read the passage and answer: Sea turtles return to the same beaches where they were born to lay their eggs. Females come ashore at night, dig a nest in the sand, and deposit dozens of eggs before returning to the ocean. The eggs hatch about two months later. According to the passage, when do female sea turtles come ashore to nest?
