Its a gray and cloudy morning. We had some rain last evening so things are damp and cool outside. A little while ago Ben came in with a new friend, a tiny turtle he found out by my snowball bush in the backyard. He looks very much like this one here which we found a couple years ago, just a little painted turtle. He's about the size of a silver dollar (remember those?)
Oh gosh. I would give a big smile if one of those crawled out of one of my bushes. We used to have things like this around but no more. I still have the same yard and it is devoted to wildlife but no turtles.
ReplyDeleteNice blog. I like your photos too.

Being on a country road is helpful if one wants to see turtles, but even here they seem rather scarce. And yes, they do bring a big smile when they show up.
ReplyDeleteNice picture. My children loved turtles when they were little. We lived in one place where they were in abundance.
ReplyDeleteCute. I moved a turtle off the highway not long ago. I haven't seen any that small though.
ReplyDeleteoooow :) what a cuty little fellow!
ReplyDeleteYou have so many cool creatures and animals in your garden (back yard);)
