Eastern Snapping Turtle (blowing bubbles)

Chelydra serpentina serpentina

Description:

A belated happy "World Turtle Day!" The preceding photo gallery features a time-series of six photos showing an Eastern Snapping Turtle blowing bubbles in the water. Do turtles play? (I liked to use a drinking straw to blow bubbles in a glass of milk when I was a child.) Related Resource: World Turtle Day http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Turtl...

Habitat:

Huntley Meadows Park, a 1,425 acre wetland area in Fairfax County, Virginia USA. Related Resource: http://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/huntl...
