The Wood Turtle is a species of special concern in Massachusetts. That means their numbers are in decline. The Wood Turtle likes to wander. I found this one near my driveway and returned it to the nearby stream after making this little film.

If you rescue a turtle always pick them up by supporting their breast plate. Never pick up a turtle by the edges of their shell (that hurts them). Our turtle was not very active during the film. It is quite amazing how still he was. The turtle was happy once returned to the stream and promptly swam away.

Marcia played some lovely music in honor of our guest. See Marcia's page on MySpace at http://www.myspace.com/marciamelloragtime
