I am looking at a nice man and his dog who found me crossing the path
in the woods from the beaver pond to the main lake. I was having a
hard time because a leech was attached half to my shell and also part
of my back leg. The nice man removed the nasty leech and helped me
out. He told me it was the biggest leech he has seen here and was
stuck on me hard.

When I was a kid, we swam in the Thames river north of London Ontario. We would often come out of the water with one or two of those damn critters on us.
 
Nice set. Leeches remind me of the leech scene in the movie, "Stand By Me." Awesome movie, btw.
 
Turtle! ! :icon_cheers:

I'm so happy that you helped him. Leeches are nasty.

Beautiful turtle, and cute shot of the shy guy.

Aside: for a memorable leech scene, check out The African Queen. ;)
