Did you know that Box Turtles are exclusively North American and occupy the eastern United States? They have a hinged lower shell that can almost completely close up. Did you know that the Box Turtle burrows almost 2 feet down in the earth in October or November until April?

I didn’t know any of these fact until I looked them up. Pretty cool.

I happened to see this colorful little guy crossing the road right in front of my new home. Welcome, little Box Turtle!

From bugling Bull Elk to Box Turtles… new adventures!
