Wordless Wednesday – Visiting Turtle with Linky #ww #wordlesswednesday

Found this guy on the back step last week as we were trying to leave for my daughters school play. We had to use the front door which we don’t do too often.

HE IS HUGE! I almost fell on him.

We live in a neighborhood with several ponds so he probably lives in one of them. Have you ever seen a tail like that on a turtle?

He is house was pretty beat up (but then again, so is mine). He must be old.

He was gone when we got back to the house about 90 minutes later. For an old guy, he sure moves fast.

    No, I haven’t seen a tail like that before. I’d have let out a loud scream if I would have found that at my door step. I live near a pond, but we’ve never had a turtle come to visit us!

    Wow! I’ve never seen a tail like that–maybe it’s a snakehead turtle? That’s the only thing that even looks remotely similar. Very strange.

    I grew up with having turtles as pets. We would make a large pen of rocks, sticks and leaves for the outdoor animal. There were always turtles to capture and nurture. My kids have only seen turtles in zoos. They just don’t live around the neighborhood anymore!
