While riding by Lake Samsonvale today I was delighted to come across this female Freshwater Turtle digging a hole to lay eggs.
The burrow was about 30 to 40m above the shoreline, so she’d come a long way to dig the hole.
She was about 30cm in size, and had dug a 30cm hole for her eggs.
As I approached, she just froze and looked at me as if to say "Can’t a girl have some privacy?"
So I took a few photos and moved on, feeling very privileged.
Today was just a short ride as Liz and I are going to spend a few hours at GOMA this afternoon
