We found this guy walking up our driveway today. and where i live is no place for a turtle so we took it out to the country side near the delta. after i got a few pictures.

They are largely characterized by having a domed shell, which is hinged at the bottom, allowing the animal to close its shell tightly to escape predators. Even though box turtles have become very popular pets, their needs in captivity are complex and the capture of turtles can have serious detrimental effects on the wild population.

The box turtle can commonly live up to twenty years, with verified cases of lifespans as long as 40 or 50 years. There have been unverified cases of box turtles living as long as one hundred years and more.

North American box turtles are omnivores. Their sharp eyes and keen sense of smell help them in finding food such as snails, insects, berries, fungi, slugs, worms, roots, flowers, fish, frogs, salamanders, various rodents, snakes, birds, and eggs.

Downtown Seattle as Seen from Kerry Park in Queen Anne Neighborhood
It was COLD COLD so i only had time to squeeze of a few shots. Not as good as they could of been.

The brightness of the Space Needle makes this shot kind of tricky without doing HDR shots,

The Troll, also known as the Fremont Troll or the Troll Under the Bridge, is a piece of whimsical public art in the Fremont neighborhood of Seattle, Washington in the United States.

The idea of a troll living under a bridge is derived from the Scandinavian folk tale "Three Billy Goats Gruff."

The Troll is a mixed-media megalithic statue, located on N. 36th Street at Troll Avenue N., under the north end of the Aurora Bridge. (Aurora Avenue North was renamed "Troll Avenue" in its honor in 2005.) Despite its name, the Troll is not under the nearby Fremont Bridge. It is clutching an actual original Volkswagen Beetle, as if it had just swiped it from the roadway above. Somewhat amusingly the vehicle had a California license plate.
