It Beat the Hare?

On a trip over to Whitehall, I saw this turtle on the side of the road.

So I jammed on the brakes, grabbed my camera, jumped out of the car, and endured my wife yelling; “what are you doing!”, only to realize that the turtle hadn’t moved at all. So here is the closeup of our slow moving friend.

So after this shot, we left it there and would you believe, it was in the same spot when we returned home!

How it out-raced a hare, I’ll never know.
