BELINDA GROVER PHOTOGRAPHY

STOPS ALONG THE WAY

MOVE OVER

29 Comments

The air was cool but the sun was nice and warm and the painted turtles were out in force. In this sheltered little bay every log was host to crowds of turtles. The spring melt has flooded parts of the park and we had to wade through shin high water to get to the little bridge that overlooked the turtles. What a sight they were for winter weary eyes.
