I got this idea from a flickr friend, Lenny, although he did a much better job with his red ear slider (we call them streaker heads down here) than I did with mine. Thanks Lenny!

May, 2012. New Jersey.

A sharp looking sub-adult Eastern Box Turtle found crossing a busy highway as a thunderstorm was rolling in in the New Jersey pine barrens. I didn't see a single box turtle in the pinelands last summer and have now seen two in the past few days. This guy was moved off the road to safety before he became a pancake.

Our first dive today was Salt Pier. It was the best dive we had on the trip, which we affectionately called the turtle dive. There were turtles at each turn, and it was fantastic! We probably saw at least 4 turtles all at the same time. They were having breakfast of sea grass. We managed to observe them eating breakfast -- using their front flippers, they'd brush the sand to reveal the sea grass underneath and take a big chomp. After a few minutes, they would ascend to exhale and inhale (sometimes they'd pop their heads up twice for both operations). It was awesome to just watch them, and they didn't seem to mind.

On August 9th, Charity and I went to the Southwick Zoo in Mendon. It was a pleasent day. Closer to the end of the day, the big animals started to wake up and move around, especilly the tigers.

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.
