Description

Size didn't seem to matter to these turtles, they all were sunning themselves along the bank at Assateague Island, VA.

This is SO cool Shirley, and you got reflections of all 3, if I didn't know better, I would say it was mom and the kids!!! <>< #1657246

Thank you, Nancy. I am glad you liked it. I thought at first that it was a family too, but when we looked closer, we could see that the smaller turtles were a different breed than the large one. #11471226

I love turtles. They stick their feet out like that to dry them in the sun. This is a great capture. Good job capturing the reflections as well. #11472636
