It’s been raining buckets due to the recent run of spring storms. Times like this you can find critters trying to find a dry spot or get to higher ground. And wouldn’t you know it, this fine day heading out the driveway to run an errand, there sits a box turtle meandering her way across the drive and up the hill. What a wonderful sight and thanks to an Outreach Program I just finished up on Radical Reptiles, I know this little critter is a female box turtle. She has brown eyes, the guys have red to orange eyes. And, yes I had to pick her up and see that she has a flat belly. Fellas have a dimple or slight curve underneath just below their hinge. Who knew such a stormy day would turn out to be so bright! You go girl!
