Oh, for want of a can opener

 
 
 
 
The terrapins were everywhere, which made for hours of fun for me. Steve found two in the orchard and we brought them both up to the front porch just to see what would happen. What I WASN'T expecting was this... especially given the fact that I"m pretty sure they were both male. Sorry for the turtle porn pic if anyone's offended, but I was absolutely intrigued to watch how aggressive the one turtle was! Clearly, the other wasn't interested, but that didn't slow the aggressor down one little bit. He all but rolled the other one over, and spun the shell around enough times to make the shy one hurl. Not exactly a smooth talker, but I'll definitely give points for persistence.
