This huge snapping turtle was 'adventuring' the backyard the other day.......fortunately for 'lou' she didn't find him..."snappers" will pretty much eat whatever they like, vegetation, small animals, aquatic creatures and I think this guy ate it all....
You just never know what you might see on a walk in the park. On this day I found snapping turtles mating. For some reason, they paid no attention to me at all....

Ahh Snapper, rugged and remote, one of my favourite locations on the coast here, nestled within Munmorah State Recreation Area.
Have a great week out there! Thanks for any comments, always greatly appreciated.

My old fave wild photography location - Snapper Point. So much variety, well to me anyway, in the coastal landscape there. From sandy beaches, rock shelves, cliffs and sea caves. It is located in a State Recreation area, similar to a National Park. Heaven! And no people - bonus!
I hope everyone had a great Christmas :)
Many thanks for every fave and comment, I appreciate them all!

Every time we visit this area later in the day, there he is hanging out. At first he would jump back in the water, now he just sits there. I have to watch carefully as this is the spot Jessie loves to play in the water, but so far they ignore each other!!!

Street photography from Glasgow, Scotland, captured in August 2026.
Looking to me like tourists, this guy and his companion were joyfully snapping away at anything and everything in the area, including a photo of me, so I returned the favour and caught this as he turned to see me. Smiles were exchanged.
Wishing you all a fabulous weekend my Flickr friends.
Stay safe and keep the shutters happily clicking away!

Taken while up at Sleeping Bear Dunes in June we saw this Snapping Turtle.
With a bus break, the emergence of all the phone snappers, including me. On the way to Milford Sound, NZ.
Closeup view of this Common Snapping Turtle. The head on this mossy old timer is bigger than my fist .... about the size of a softball.
I was fortunate to snap this shoal of Humpback Snapper off the world famous atoll of Rangiroa in French Polynesia which is a mecca for divers, with a diversity of marine life that is truly spectacular. Manta rays, sea turtles, barracudas, dolphins, sharks, napoleonfish can also be seen.

This Snapping Turtle was high along the bank of the Grand River at the Ravines on Sunday morning. Not sure if this was before or after the egg laying.
Saturday's stormy weather brought some unusual catch for one Pacific Gull at the beach in Port Phillip Bay.
(Larus pacificus)
Australasian Snapper
(Chrysophrys auratus)
One from a very short venture up the moors this afternoon. I knew there wouldn't be much snow hanging around, But after being stuck indoors all day yesterday it was nice to get out in the fresh air. I wasn't out long as I knew the rain would be closing in quite soon and on my way home it absolutely chucked it down!
A terrible day to shoot surfing, tide in the wrong place and every man and his dog crowding the break, managed a few shots of surfers
---he wasn't actually sinister, but the early evening light combined with the deep shade next to the decking seemed to give this huge snapping turtle a surreal look..
We had walked over to the pond with the intention of feeding the turtles, but the 'turtle kibble' dispenser wasn't working. : [ This humongous guy looked like he'd gladly settle for a hand if I couldn't provide a hand-out....
I 'm not sure if this is an Alligator Snapper or a Florida snapping Turtle. I think maybe the Florida Snapper, but would appreciate any help.
Florida Snapping turtles can grow up to 19 " (48.2cm) and weigh 35 lbs. (15.8k)., where the Alligator Snapper can be 29" long (73.6cm) and weigh over to 200 lbs. (90.7k)....
(One if the largest freshwater turtles in the world.)
big difference.... : )
