Spent Saturday morning on Belle Isle checking out the Shiver on the River event.

But you don't want her to get a hold of your fingers either.

He looks so big and strong! Like he's doing push-ups.

The shell of this turtle was about a foot long. It came out of the woods on 05/27/10 and stopped about 15 feet away from where I was in the middle of planting a tree - sat there and watched me for the next half hour!

Back in Midland we had turtles in the back yard. They would even come up and scratch at the door sometimes, in hopes of obtaining a nice juicy strawberry!

I think this is a Ridley's turtle, but I'm too lazy to look it up right now.

This turtle just appeared in our backyard. WTF?!

This is Rootbeer, our Three-Toed Box Turtle. We've had her for 24 years now. She was already this large when we got her. In the summer, Rootbeer lives in an old dog crate shoved under the bushes. She has to be surrounded on all sides by fencing, or she will climb or dig her way out. She has already escaped twice, and been missing for a few days. I'm sorry she hates life in captivity so much.
