While strolling through Greenfield Park today I had the opportunity to watch from a distance a Snapping Turtle finishing up laying eggs, then a walk to pond nearby. I gave it plenty of space letting it do it’s thing staying 15- 20 feet away not to disturb it. Images were taken on June 8, 2018.
Snapping Turtle, Chelydra serpentina
Burying the last of the eggs…
The walk to the pond…
The tail…
Those claws…
