Today I looked out my window to see a large turtle walking across our lawn. We’ve been seeing the most random animals since we’ve moved here. The kids were pretty excited to watch it walking around the yard all morning. I’ve heard turtles can be pretty protective and bite and telling the kids that was quite enough for them to keep their distance. On Saturday Mom and I saw an animal walking behind her fence line in the middle of the day right after I finished mowing. After trying to google North American animals to see what it is I think we nailed it down to being a large land beaver…not 100% sure though. Anyway, here is our “pet” turtle. When I checked on him right before lunch I didn’t see him so I walked by the creek and heard a loud splash. I guess he was heading toward the creek the whole time.

You should post a picture of a land beaver. Did the kids name the turtle?
ReplyDeleteJonathan thinks the mystery creature is the legendary Chupacabra .
ReplyDeleteThat is so cool. If Hannah had been there, she would have kept the turtle. She wants one as a pet.
