Come out of your shell

A snapping turtle explores College Road. This one ran off (surprisingly fast) after I took its photo. I'm told females lay eggs in summer - look forward to baby turtles!

Oh wow, we don't have "running" turtles around!

What a photo opportunity. Beats my horses, swans and sheep any day. Well done!

cieldequimper -- I didn't realize that "ran" either! Perhaps I did scare it, all in the name of a snapshot :)

LOLfromPasa -- Though I admit, I enjoy your horses, swans and sheep far more!

I've been looking for turtle eggs. Turtles will be digging holes and depositing eggs in them soon.

Wow - look at that turtle go! Very interesting.

EG CameraGirl -- that is so cool! I can't wait for that to happen too!

Adele -- they run surprisingly fast when they're alarmed! :)
