If you want to get a neat and nifty photo of an animal, you need to get on his (her?) level. We all see the world from somehere between (about) five-six feet in altitude. Get low and get us on his (her?) level. I stumbled across this little box turtle while hiking in Greenbelt Park. 25 April 2009.
Pacific Pond Turtle close up profile. I thought it was interesting that the algae on this turtle is the exact same color as the eyes and green markings. Mother Natures Camo in full effect here!!

I thought I'd take a break from my Disney shots and post a shot that I took at SeaWorld San Diego. This little guy was sunbathing (and taking a little snooze) over with the other turtles... ^___^
Enjoyed sharing the reef with this youngster. Fantastic dive with the great people at Dive Experience in Christiansted, St. Croix
I came across this rotund fellow as I drove up to the R. Gallagher Generating Station. After a few photos, I placed him in the nearby brush.
Same turtle from earlier, just a different angle.
I have 45 images that I took the time to process sitting in a folder labeled "Flickr" that I haven't bothered to upload. So I'm going to upload a whole bunch of them so I can just be done with it!
While his wild brethren are burrowing down for a harsh winter, the GTCD's red-eared slider turtle does his morning yoga routine under his heat lamp.
I didn't take this shot ! My partner was out yesterday morning and spotted this turtle on the path, and came back for my camera so that I could at least see what he had seen. I just love how her head looks like it has been in the pond so long that it has become part of the pond. She (I presume it's a she) has been scratching in the sandy parts of the pathway, so I presume she is looking for a place for her eggs. The path is not a good spot, as ATV's often use it even though they are restricted from this area.
