My co-worker, Steve Harvey, preserve manager of Sheldon Marsh State Nature Preserve, sent me this photo of hatchling snapping turtles on the beach at one of Ohio's most famous natural areas. How many turtles do you see? Clicking on image will reveal the turtles at full resolution. Summer is winding down, and hatchling turtles are a sure sign that fall will soon be in the air.

Very cute! Thanks for sharing the photos.
ReplyDeleteFrom my place here in Norway I can see 7 turtles ;-)
ReplyDeleteTom: I'm going to agree with Ivar and say 7. What a great find.
ReplyDeleteI see 7...cool! Glad you showed this.
ReplyDeleteColl pic - I counted nine, but that may be partly wishful thinking.
ReplyDeleteI saw 7 (or possibly 8.) They're just adorable!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone. I love turtles, and this is a great sight, this many hatchlings going down to Lake Erie to begin their lives. I count seven turtles- But I didn't take the picture, so who know, there may be more.
