August 2013 – Baby Turtles Hatch on Slope

I wanted to plant a willow on the slope, near the area where the turtles had been laying eggs. Instead of a shovel, I used my hands to dig a hole, very carefully.

Sure enough, dozens of baby turtles had hatched. I carefully put them into a bucket, and brought them down to the pond. The immediately made a beeline for the water!
