By sheer serendipity, we saw four sea turtles climb up on this gravel beach near Pauoa Bay, just after sunset, on the grounds of the Fairmont Orchid resort. Because of the low light it was tough to get their faces in focus. Oh well!
I almost stepped on him but the orange caught my eye. So I waited and waited for him to come out of his shell but he was more patient than I.
Gave this turtle to a friend as a birthday gift. I didn't have buttons on hand to make the eyes, so I had to embroider them this time. i liked that they got to be blue that way though. Otherwise all the eyes have been black.

These guys are hard to shoot when they start moving !
The foreground branches made it difficult to get a clear view of the turtle on a log. Photographed along the Tuliptree Trail in Rondeau Provincial Park, Ontario.
