This big guy was crossing the street in the middle of the day at Chincoteague, stopping traffic as everyone got out of their cars to take pictures of him. (See picture below)
Photographed on Ashford Hollow Road, West Valley, New York.
Large and aggressive. Don't try and stroke it's chin unless you're happy with fewer fingers.
This turtle was resting on a log beside the Tip to Tip Trail along the Rideau Canal, Ottawa. The sun was high and the turtle was enjoying its warmth. He was not bothered by having his picture taken and stayed there for a very long time.

They have a major breeding program in Fuerteventura so this one was being well looked after!
They have been transporting whole nests of eggs from the Cape Verde Islands and re-burying them on isolated beaches in Fuerteventura. Since the turtles always return to the beach they hatched on to breed, they should be back in around 20 years!

this pic was taken at the iguana sanctuary in Mexico, this was the only shot I managed to get, someone was holding this little guy, and was about to put him back in the water so I grabbed a quick shot, kinda cute, huh?
EXPLORE: September 30. Whenever there's a lot of rain in my neighborhood, we see turtles passing through the front yard. I suspect they are coming from the wetland area down the road and are moving to higher ground? I have no idea. I'm happy to have them pass through and to stay as long as they like.

An old picture I took a couple of years back. Didn't think it was a good shot and never did anything about it. Have not been diving for a while so decided to do some editing and post it...
Disfruta el dia con calma!
