Giant Turtle

Here at Auburn University they have some pretty little ponds/fountains scattered about the campus. Lots of turtles live in them and Andy has been telling me about this gigantic turtle he keeps seeing and I finally made him take a picture so I could see what he was talking about. That is Andy's shadow on the water and the turtles are sitting on a board that is about a foot wide he says. This is not a snapping turtle it is a regular box turtle and you can see him sitting on a normal sized box turtle on the board. I have never seen a turtle this big that wasn't either a snapping turtle or a sea turtle. Just thought it was amusing and would share with everyone. We are going to take Caleb to see it on Sunday when we take our afternoon walk. Maybe I can get a picture of it near Caleb for more size comparison. ;D
