| This photograph was taken October 3, 2004 at Mayberry State Park near Northville, Michigan. It was a pretty warm fall day, and we were not the only ones enjoying the sun. We were out for a hike along one of the many trails in the park. This trail went out over a few small ponds and had little decks that one could use to get closer to the water. These painted turtles were lined up on the log and sunning themselves in any available space. Other turtles were doing the same thing, but this group was by far the largest. |
