This turtle was standing very, very still. So focusing was trivial, and I got to make sure that no annoying leaves were in the way. Completely unlike with that bird a while ago, the last time we were there.

I found this turtle crossing the road and had to slow traffic down for it to get across safely. One teenager tried to pick it up before I warned him. Thankfully, someone else showed the teenager how fast/far that turtle can bite, and the kid decided it was better left alone.

Turtles are just fun to watch. When I was a child, living in England, I had three for 3 1/2 years as pets. True, they can't fetch, roll over, or beg - but they were amusing little fellows. When I moved back to the US I could not bring them back, I gave then to a friend in Huntington.

Most mornings I see a rabbit in the front yard but today there was a turtle. Guess he won the race today.

A turtle sitting on submerged branch in the Mokelumne River in California's Central Valley. One of my best turtle pictures! Another unusually calm critter.
