They were lined up along the old canal this morning. There was at least 5 in a short area on Miss Daisy's walk.

Nice! Those are snappers? You must have been pretty quick to catch those.

Thanks Brent. Yes, common snapping turtles. I think these are 2 different individuals that must have been in the middle of depositing eggs because they did not hiss or try to leave the hole they had dug. I went behind one of them but could not see eggs. I had my dog with me so did not get quite as close as I could have without her.

Good timing!

Thanks! Wasn't much timing involved though

Excellent

Thank you sir!
