I've always liked turtles. We used to catch the babies and raise them at home. So much fun to feed them flies. Watch their mouths go back and forth while the fly slowly got mangled, then swallowed.

My old Kodak camera took great photos when it was new... but apparently they DO wear out!

I found this turtle on a beach in Visakhapatnam. This poor creature has lived around 35 to 40 long years to reach its adulthood and be able to lay eggs. And made it to this beach after crossing many oceans only to meet its fateful end before its eggs could see life on this plannet. According to a media report, "the turtles get entangled in fishing trawlers and gill nets and the fishermen kill them with hammer blows to keep their costly nylon nets intact."

Hello Mr. Turtle.

Hi Mr. Turtle.

Nothing in the World moves as slow as you.

Why are you so slow?

Climbing as high as possible to reach the warming rays of the sun.

We took a walk along the San Antonio River on Easter. We didn't find any Easter eggs, but we found this turtle laying eggs by the river, does that count? :-)

The turtles lounge on this same log every day on the Cypress Swamp Trail.
