FINDING OUR FIRST BOX TURTLE OF THE YEAR
You've got to be careful on the road, especially if you're a box turtle!
While heading to get the rear seat for our new truck, Monster Truck and I had to pull over to check this guy out! I love these turtles, and although we had some up in Wisconsin, they were not nearly as plenteous as they are here. I made a video when I first saw it to "bring you along for the ride," but also spent some time photographing this beautiful animal before releasing it.

Nice find!...:)...
Hey there, @papa-pepper, I entered the @comedyopenmic contest this week and I had to nominate two others to add a funny post in the contest, so I picked you as one of them.
I hope you don't mind, and I understand if you don't want to do it, but you have some pretty funny moments, and I was at a loss for who else to pick.
Anyhow, my post is https://steemit.com/homesteading/@granolalight/beaver-fever-comedy-open-mic-round-12
if you were interested. There's not a lot of people repping the homesteaders over there.
I've heard you homesteaders are a funny bunch. Thanks the great laugh.
I've seen @papa-pepper participate in the meme challenge, so I know he has a funny bone too. Can't wait to see his entry :)
As soon as I saw the video , I thought of turtle soup. Now, I've never had turtle soup, and my wife loves turtles so if I had it, I'm sure I'd get an earful from her.
You mentioned catching turtles. What do you do with them? is it for food? for amusement? What do they taste like? This is all very new to me.
Really cool to find these guys; and good on you for stopping! Nice photos, too.
It is really difficult to judge a turtle whose color hormonise with surroundings while driving on road. It looks more like a bird in frontal view.
Is it water /dust proof like the modern day smartphone!!!!!!
It is totally closed in your hand, a closed box, not only box.
it look like so crazy @papa-pepper.is it aggresive?
Aggressive ? It's bloody furious. He released it before he got his share of the SP from this post !
We all should be on the road to watch.
Otherwise, we can get in trouble.
Thank you so much for giving this warning message.
