Turtleville

It's been interesting getting gardening done between rain storms. This not-so-little snapping turtle helper was inside the chicken wire fence I have around the peas and cabbages. She had been digging holes and presumably laying her eggs. After getting hung up in the fence on the way out, she took a rest and wasn't too concerned about a human being close. After all, I DID get her to the other side of the fence!

Yes, I'm ready for my close-up!

Maggie was intrigued by this funny rock in the mud puddle. Mmmmm? A much smaller cousin of Ms. Snappy Pants.

AND THEN, I found a beautiful moth out at the barn this morning. I love how the eyes look like an owl. That would scare it's enemies away.
