Yesterday morning Bea was out in her yard and found this Red-Eared Slider Turtle in front of her driveway. This particular breed is an aquatic turtle so it mainly lives in the water, but comes onto dry ground to lay eggs and bask in the sun.
The dogs got to check it out, and even Ted was curious. Michel set the Mtn. Dew can beside it for scale- the turtle itself is about as big as Michel's hand.
The last picture is a neat one I caught of a bird on top of the feeder hooks. I was waiting for the turtle to pose, so I photographed the bird. ;)
