June is the time of year our turtles leave the pond in search of a suitable sandy place to lay their eggs.
The soil on the south side of the house seems to be their preferred location. They will spend the day digging several decoy holes in hopes the raccoons don't find the true nest of eggs.
It's a long arduous hike up through the vegetation to get to our place, but every year they make the trek and every year we enjoy the show. This year it is much later than usual and I blame it on our cold wet spring that just stayed and stayed this year.
Hope you are outside enjoying your own views of nature.
Safe travels everyone and thanks for stopping by.
