Description
My desk overlooks the lake behind our condo. The lake level is down because of a prolonged drought. This turtle tried to climb, the steep banking, exposed by the drought. S/he fell backwards onto its back. I watched as s/he tried to flip over and you can see the mud that was kicked up (lover left), during those attempts. It was in the 80s, directly in the sun and it had stopped moving. So I went down, took this shot, put my camera on the banking, turned it over, grabbed my camera and it was already gone. Zoom will not help!
Sorry to find myself behind on postings and comments. Under the weather for a couple of days.
Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments. They are very much appreciated.

Boy! You know you are slowing up a lot in your years if a turtle can get away from you. ;D LOL! Excellent capture and good deed! :)
Oh the poor thing, the placement of her arms? claws, lol not sure what they are called for turtles too early and haven't my coffee, but she sure seems to be in distress. Good to know you got her back on her way. And I hope you are feeling better.
