OK, I'm guilty. While Charlie and I were walking in our driveway the other day, we saw this turtle digging a hole for her eggs. I thought she had the hole dug and was laying the eggs so I started taking pictures knowing she wouldn't leave until finished. After a few pictures, I continued walking and when we next walked by, she was gone with the hole halfway dug. I felt terrible! I guess she figured we were a risk to her babies. Little did she know that Charlie planned to stake off her area so we wouldn't run over the nest.

I hope she found another spot soon and I hope I get another chance to see a turtle lay her eggs. It is one of the things on my life's 'To Do' list. I'd love to see a sea turtle but you know, a simple box turtle in the yard would be just fine. What is on your list? Making any headway with it? The older I get, the more I seem to appreciate the little things and am in constant awe at what nature has to offer just in our yard.
