Turtle Time

On a tip from a neighbor, I photographed this snapping turtle yesterday, while propped on a rock and enjoying the view. Do you like turtles, and, would you like one in your home? If so, you can choose to enjoy this turtle on prints available from my gallery! There are several options to consider, in addition to other items, also.

Thanks for stopping by!

    Years ago I mowed lawns commercially and came upon some huge snappers along the cricks and rivers in Michigan. I would occasionally have to use a stick to encourage them to move so I could mow. 😂

      They can be tough customers, indeed, and better a stick than a finger – ouch!

      Absolutely! The turtle was just chilin’, resting propped on a small rock, taking in the view and enjoying some nice weather. I hope you have a very nice weekend, dear Gigi 🤗

    Wonderful turtle! Shell seems very polished!

      Yes, and very patient while I took some photographs close up. I wonder what it would be like if we could only move as slowly as a turtle? I suppose everyone would work remotely, and running shoes would fade from the market, haha. Have a great day, sweet Vanya 😘

    Wow!! What a capture Phil, …it’s an incredible looking animal, definitely prehistoric, …💫

      It was cool, indeed. We’ve got 5 ponds on the mountain, and I’m not sure which one this turtle may have been interested in finding, but it appeared lost and I wasn’t about to lift it to place it in the right direction – SNAP!!! 😂

        Yup, best not to try, You picked the right option there, Phil, … 👏😂👏

    Cool turtle, he looks pretty content! I’ve noticed a lot of our neighbors are keeping tortoises lately, it seems to be a trend!

      Hey there, Tiffany! A cool turtle, indeed, and quite comfortable. He didn’t mind the camera, either, and later slowly made his way into the woods. Thanks fo rstopping by. my friend, and I wish you a wonderful week ahead 😎🎨👍

    Es ist gut, das sie si langsam ist. Anderseits wäre John nie an ihr vorbeigekommen 😅

      Sehr langsam, wirklich, und nicht in Eile. Ich war froh, dass ich so nah herankommen konnte, um ein Foto zu machen. Schön, dich zu sehen, liebe Nicole, und ich wünsche dir einen wunderschönen Tag. Ein Kuss! 😘
