The turtles are out at the wetlands and "wren-o-vations".....

I stopped by the wetlands one day last week and the water was very high still.  Hope to go back this week and maybe the water will have gone down some.  But the turtles were out on the logs in the creek.  There just weren't as many logs above the water level for them to sit on.

 The water in the creek was high, but clear.  A beautiful day to be out!

The boardwalks that cross the ponds were under water, so the goose was sitting on the railing. 

 Young maple leaves that looked pretty.

Skink.....they are sometimes on the bridge over the creek.

A few turtles :-)

One of the few in the water. 

Ready to paddle? 

"Get out of my way....I was here first!" 

 This goose had its spot surrounded by turtles.

The one in the middle is doing the Hokey Pokey....."You put your right foot out...." 

 Assorted sizes.

 All alone and happy

"Can't you scoot up higher?  I don't have enough room!"

This one is for Rose, who likes to count my turtles :-)

At home I have a pair of House Wrens making "wren-o-vations" to my nest boxes.  I've seen them putting sticks in at least two of the boxes.

"Hmmm.....I'm sure this should fit in here somehow." 

"Well, what are you looking at?"
