She's Baaaack





I was looking out the door before, and noticed this Florida softshell turtle that keeps coming in our yard when ever it rains - {or lately whenever}was back again. Its really an ugly thing! But who am I to say- God has lots of ugly animals, But they all fulfill a purpose the way they're built that makes them so odd looking. Anyway, this thing drives me nuts! It runs over my Heliconia plants in the back corner of my yard, flattening them when it crawls under the fence to come in, I had Gladiolas too which he /she used to flatten as well. So today I looked out the door and saw It was back AGAIN. This thing has been put in a box, brought back across the street to the pond where it came from, shooed back under the fence, - gotta watch it because it has a neck a foot long with a temper to match.It will bite if provoked so I keep Thomas away from it n& just show him it from afar. So today I took my camera and decided to follow it. I noticed it was scooting away, {they're pretty fast too. It stopped under the boat trailer and decided to dig a ditch and tuck its head in HUH! looks like this one id a mommy turtle and wants to lay some eggs under our boat! No No NO !Not there dummy !We ever want to move the boat { which we will since this things going up for sale SOON.! We don't need any baby ugly turtle running arounfd the yard! Oy vay! What is this Turtle Bay? First snappers, then painteds, now ugly Softshels- gotta get rid a the pond - must be whats attracting them..
