Mean While Back at the Quarry Pond...

On a sunny day...

...three turtles and a duck...

...no, three turtles and two ducks share a log.  

Until one turtle decided...

...that there were too many ducks on the log.

So he slowly and ponderously...

...walked ever closer to the duck...

...until...

...he shoved one duck into the water.
And moved on to remove Duck #2!

I hope you can share your enjoyment of the weekend with others!

Oh, how cute!! Such a sweet photo...

We just found a snapping turtle smack dab in the middle of our yard yesterday--very strange... My husband kindly flipped him over, picked him up with a shovel, and carried him to our pond (where we hope he doesn't devour all of the fish!).
