This afternoon my brothers and I were playing basketball on the driveway and one of the balls bounced over the trampoline and into the weeds and wild raspberry vines.
My oldest brother went after it and while he carefully moved through the thorns and tall weeds, he called out that he'd found a turtle! I ran up excitedly and then, careful not to brush against a prickly raspberry branch, I crouched down and peeked under the vines to see a shell tucked under it all.
Just about as big as a man's hand, it was seemingly comfortable in it's thorny haven and we just left it there after retrieving the ball and going back to playing.
I ran in, though, and grabbed the camera to take a quick video to show Mom. :D
