Turtles

[penmillion]

There are a lot of turtles about, and more on the way. Yesterday when I went out for a morning stroll with Stephen I saw a turtle laying eggs in the yard. Today there was one laying eggs in my garden. I'll have to find out when they are supposed to hatch so I can watch my step.

What kind of turtle? Would be cool to watch the eggs hatch (or the young work their way out of their nest)

Hmm, good question. Maybe Blandings?

I've seen them in the evenings, too, but the egg-laying ones were out a little before 9:00 am.
