Saw a bunch of turtles in Jackson Pond Columbia, MD today, but this red-eared slider was the only chill one #trtlpix #turtles

This area really needs thinning out

I have alot of turtles back in the woods. They need a forest floor that's easy to move across. Helps with their mating and foraging

I look forward to my next stint watching over sea turtle nests. This is one of my favorite photos from a previous year of a hatchling first emerging from her sandy birthplace. Look at those eyes and beak!

#TurtleTuesday continues celebrating this banner year for Eastern Box Turtles in our woods with the penultimate photo from this year. I thought the designs on this one would make for a really good Rorschach test.
