Box Turtle
This past Sat., I was visiting the cemetery off of RT.6 in Goochland and I came across this box turtle. I took a bunch of photos of it in the cemetery and I wanted to send you one of the many photos I took. I love the colors and the instense red eyes of this wonderful animal. As a kid, I loved collecting box turtles, and have always found them to be one of my animals...

I wanted to share it with you and your paper.
