Turtle · **1 Like**

Saw this guy from across the river while hiking and decided to go and get a closer look. I luckily got this shot before someone spooked him away. K3 + DA*50-135

These two were from across the river with the HD55-300 @ 300mm before I hiked to the other side.

Good shots of a nice looking Snapping Turtle!

Good shots of the snapping turtles. They do look like they are from another time...but still surviving and doing well.

Nicely done.

They do look that way, but they have been around for over 200 million years.
