Three trips to parks and three turtle sightings.
In June Dan and I visited Wye Island and I wrote about it here.
We saw this turtle crossing the road. It wasn't bothered by my walking up to take its photo. In fact it was quite speedy crossing.
On July 3 we had a walking trip from Vantage House courtesy of the Fitness staff to Quiet Waters Park outside Annapolis, MD. We spotted this turtle along the path.
On Sunday, a lovely day to be out, we drove to Calvert Cliffs State Park, and hiked 3.6 miles round trip. More on that hike to the Chesapeake Bay in another post. Along the way we spotted these two turtles in the wetlands along the path.
I don't know how the turtle above climbed up that old stump which was several feet out of the water. The one below was content to be half in and half out of the water on that lily pad.
So nice to see creatures in their natural habitat. They don't have it easy.
