Awww.... look!

My daughter and I took a walk at a nearby Wildlife Refuge yesterday.  This cute little fellow was sitting in the path.  :)  From what I can see, he must be about 15 years old.  Box turtles are amazing.  They are territorial.  He must have a good life there are the refuge.

    1. It was probably a snapping turtle! They are dangerous. When I was a girl, we had a pet snapping turtle! He finally got so big that Mommie gave him to a zoo!
