This morning I finally saw the turtle that has lived on our property for years.  Happy to see him, I ran in to get my camera.  When I went towards him I gently asked if I could take his picture.  He looked at me and the next thing I knew he was coming towards me.  He said  'yes'. 

Who says you can't communicate with a turtle?  He came so close that I had to back up with the lens that I was using.  This final shot is his closeup.   I thanked him and he went on his way.  What a gorgeous guy.
