A turtle in the marsh at the first place that British people settled in the New World - Jamestown, VA

This turtle was wandering the neighborhood for two days.........we picked it up and asked neighbors if anybody knew who it belonged to. ( I mean, it's pretty hard to lose a turtle, not like it can make a quick get-away) No owners found, so we called a Desert Turtle rescue, and they will pick him up. I didn't know they were endangered, due to destruction of their habitat, and slowness to reproduce........The female doesn't start to lay eggs until 15-20 years (like a good girl ).........after that, every 2-3 years.

Chrysemys picta, Western Painted Turtle.

This one didn't try to kill us, but he wasn't too happy when we picked him up and took him with us for a few minutes. We were moving him from the middle of a road to what we perceived as a better habitat, meaning, something with more vegetation. Look at his dinosaur leg.

Snapping Turtle (Chelydra serpentina) found crossing a road at Duke Farms.

Loads of personality. Eastern Box Turtle. Chattanooga area, Tennessee.

Rain today so back to my turtle visit. One of the fun mornings

This snapping turtle traveled quite the distance from its swamp habitat to lay some eggs.

Leo lived in my backyard for exactly a year. Hope he's found another good spot.

It's been a long time since I've played with (held) a turtle. We used to collect box turtles when I was a kid.
