Trail Run - wildlife sightings

Gorgeous trail run this morning. Paynetown is exploding in green. The redbuds and dogwoods are flowering, ferns are popping up everywhere. Daisy flushed out a big wild turkey, and we saw our first turtle of the year - at the top of a hill - a good 300 vertical feet from the nearest stream - isn't that odd? Yep, box turtle, if I remember him correctly compared to the photos here.

Hey Cheryl! Cat from Tennessee here. Just thought it funny you had your first turtle sighting today. I was showing some ladies from Atlanta around today and we had our first turtle sighting too. Ours was a snapper in the road. One of the girls helped get it across before a car could run it over.

Glad Dreama pointed me to your blog!
