She's back again this year. Our very own Snapper. She is looking for a place to lay her eggs. She was here last year and tried a few places but was unsuccessful due to the hard ground. She did try another site closer to the dock and Rejean got a load of sand and prepared a nice spot for her but she never found it. Maybe this year she will. We rarely see turtles in our lake but every once in a while we will see her if we leave some fish in the basket in the water. We also have a few painted turtles around here which we rarely see as well. They are very secretive.
Joanne has had her share of turtle traffic on her driveway. They can actually get a hole big and deep enough for them to actually lay the eggs but so far none have hatched.
I will keep an eye out for her diggings and keep you posted.
J.
