SNAPPING TURTLE

 
Every year about this time the Snapping Turtles come out of the water. I believe it is when the females lay their eggs. I saw this turtle on the side of the road so I stopped and took its photo. A week or so ago I saw a HUGE Snapper on the side of the road but I didn't get a photo

I used to canoe up the Nemasket River every summer to swim in Lake Assawompsett - which is very illegal as it's a resevoir, but I never got caught. On the way, we'd see snappers about the size of manhole covers. There were very few ducks on the Nemasket as a result.
