apples, plums and pears - yum yum. All loaded with fruit too ! Going to be a bumper crop year. The mulberry is weeping under so many berries. Seeing lots of fawns now and plenty of twins. Does are sure fertile around these parts. ------------------ Christian, Jew, Muslim, Shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has a secret way of being with the Mystery, unique and not to be judged.

Ha! I had to share. Last evening I was weeding a patch of sweet peas and obedient plants and I looked over, about 10 ft away, and saw a painted turtle vigorously digging a hole in the lawn. Startled, it didn`t register at first it was a turtle, I let a squawk out and Phoenix came running to investigate. . Watching, she finished digging her hole , laid her eggs and moseyed off. We have been puzzled over the years by the empty rubbery shells found on the lawn and couldn`t fathom a turtle wandering this far from the lake/swamps to lay her eggs. I saw the proof and am totally amazed. It will be fun to watch and wait for babies! ps I wanted to run get the camera but didn`t want to let Phoenix at her and he was being a pistol about the event. ------------------ Christian, Jew, Muslim, Shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has a secret way of being with the Mystery, unique and not to be judged.

Awesome, Juni! You have many interesting visitors. At least now the mystery is solved. It would be nice if you can catch a few pics of the baby turtles. Oh yes, told you on another thread that you taught me a new word: moseying but the thread was glitching and posts poofed, so I wasn't sure if you saw it. Wondered what animal does this mosey thing. Looked it up though. ------------------ quote: You will find the Treasure. The Map is within you.

Since I don`t know a thing about turtle eggs a nd we wanted to see them hatch & head out, I looked them up:"The length of incubation (or amount of time it takes for eggs to hatch) depends a lot on weather conditions. Temperature, humidity, rainfall, and other factors influence incubation. Generally, land turtle incubation ranges from 45-90 days" Now, how darn general is that? I`d have to pitch a tent & hang out there. LOL re mosey. Turtles and I mosey, Phoenix and deer sprint ------------------ Christian, Jew, Muslim, Shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has a secret way of being with the Mystery, unique and not to be judged.

I can throw bread in the lake where I live, and dozens of baby turtles will appear at the surface and start chomping. IP: Logged |

E mails still being returned saying server not responding in a timely manner Yesterday we saw a snapping turtle big as a wash tub. It was huge and I imagine it could take my hand off in one bite. . ------------------ Christian, Jew, Muslim, Shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has a secret way of being with the Mystery, unique and not to be judged.

Juni, not sure why that is happening. Not sure if it's something on my side or yours.Did you mean people try to drive over the turtles as they try to cross the road? IP: Logged |

Yes they do and it angers me. There are signs in June along the lake shoes saying "turtle seasonal crossing" but they find it sport I guess. I replied and see if you get it. ------------------ Christian, Jew, Muslim, Shaman, Zoroastrian, stone, ground, mountain, river, each has a secret way of being with the Mystery, unique and not to be judged.
