He had a bad day.
I found two box turtles one day. The funny thing was, one of them had gotten high-centered on the other. I thought maybe the first one had stopped too quick. I pushed the top one with my foot and figured out they were hung up. I was there alone but I still blushed!:blush:

The horror was it was all in slow motion.

Eventually we made our way closer and there he was, pretty scared and trapped up. We eased up close but he was scared and the flight mechanism had kicked in, so I dropped down to my knees and slipped up close to him and Tim opened the trap. He hung out for a minute and headed back to the house with a hitch in his getty up. I ended up with a knee full of dog sh*t, but It was worth to help the feller out.
I think I had posted this previously.
Some developer bought an amusement park and was going to build a school.
They needed an environmental impact statement and these photos were in it, ostensibly as representative of the cottonwoods, mugworts and fragmites.

I don't have a picture, but several years ago, I was surveying a parcel that was wooded. I heard something rustling the leaves, and it was a small box turtle. He was near a hogwire fence. I watched him for a minute, and went on about my duties.
I went back to the same traverse point several days later, and heard something in the leaves. That poor box turtle was stuck in the hogwire fence! I bent the wire so that he could free himself, and that little turtle made a beeline for the small pond at the bottom of the hill. He was thirtsy. I walked down to the water a few minutes later, and there he was, drinking away.
I'm glad I happened to be there. Dying of thirst would be a horrible way to go, for any creature.

Gotta be one of the best stories ever.
