finally had time to go out this month

Post by jamesh »

found many frogs , pickerels and greens plus tmtc red spotted newts in the water and the usual painted turtles basking. then two were found doing a little digging/one pictured below.
found a spotted turtle but couldn't get a photo. dropped in the water the second i spotted it. i waited half an hour sitting on a fallen tree over looking the puddle but i missed my chance.

I love that shot of the pickerel! :thumb: Looks like a productive outing. Probably not worth 30 min on a painted unless it was gorgeous! :crazyeyes:
