  • Ummmmm...what's this song have to do with a turtle?

    Great song, doesn't fit boring turtle head video. Back to cutting room, try again.

  • The song has nothing to do with Turtles. I like the song and from the comments it seems that others like it also.

    "Boring" you say...well, it is obvious that you do not understand the box turtle. Egress from hibernation is a HUGE moment in a box turtle's life--it is also a HUGE moment for box turtle lovers since it means that the turtle has survived another winter. Please, before you make rude comments try to see another--not so narrow--view. Not everything is Hollywood.

  • Too bad you couldnt have posted the entire song.

  • Sorry, I will try to use it in a future video;-)

  • I adore this song. Do you happen to know what Buffett album it's on?

  • It was a single that came with his book that came out a few years back called Salty Piece of Land. It was only with the hardcover I believe. The book is a good read also.

  • Very pretty lady, she's up and ready for her rise-and-shiner. XD

  • i just rescued a box turtle off of a highway (literally bout to cross) and i was wondering when winter starts to roll around does he have to dig to hibernate or should i offer leaves and hay for him to cover up in

  • haha i have a box turtle! and her name is tripod!! haha does your tipod only have 3 legs? thats why my tripod is named tripod! haha :)

  • I have the audio book of Salty Piece of Land and love playing this song over and over ... love it !! I tried to write JB through his Margaritaville website to tell him to make a move of the book - GREAT book - can visualize every bit of it !!

  • i have a turtle IDENTICAL to it....mine is a gurl though

  • If they are in dirt, they poke their heads through like yours is doing. After a few times it makes a nice little dirt tube. They will hang out looking through their dirt tube for weeks before they go really deep, and after they come out from deep ground. Its really cute.

  • this is coincidental because the ocelot that the british guy owns is named tripod
