Momma Snapper

As promised, here's a picture of a snapping turtle that was walking across my street into the cul de sac island on Saturday morning. Apparently, she has laid her eggs on the island in past years and the neighbors have seen 30 little baby turtles crossing the street to get back to the wetlands behind our house! Picture below with my size 9 garden clog is for scale.

Holy giant turtle! V. exciting. I love that stuff. We watch the foxes and bunnies in our yard. (And turn away when we see the cayotes chase them!)
