I found this little guy sunning on a rock as I rode by the river and I thought he was pretty cute. He has a Yoda expression. ;)

He's adorable! Thanks.:)
A baby pond slider! I saw one today too. They are really moving from pond to pond this time of the year.
Yes, they are pretty busy right now. This one was so tiny--about the size of a half dollar. :)
Aww...I love turtles:D
That looks like the kind we used to buy at the dime store
(how old am I?:eek:)

Was pleased to be able to load this pic and show my nearly 13 year old who has had a passion for turtles his whole life.
He thought it was pretty cool that you saw one when you were out and about on your bike
:)
Those were red-eared sliders. I used to get them at Woolworth's back somewhere in the 19th century. :cool:Quote:

I am currently fostering 6 baby diamondback terrapin turtles in my classroom. I am supposed to let them go in the bay soon. Nope, I am in love with my tortugas. They are currently the size of half dollars and I am not sending them out to be eaten by a big flounder. Nope ain't gonna happen. I will take a pic and post it for my fellow turtle overs.
I found a tiny baby turtle in my garden the other day. So precious!
I talked sweetly to him and left him hiding among the chives. :)
