I was on my way to the nearby Rocket Ranch in May when I spotted this tortoise working on crossing the road. While traffic isn't heavy on Palmito Hill Road, the Texas tortoise is listed as threatened in Texas, so it was probably a good thing I made sure this one made it across safely.

Describe what happened. Example
"Mother Blanding had made her nest between the goldenrod and bluestem outside my window late last June.
By chance we were sitting on the porch when we noticed little blandings in the same location we had seen the mother take 2 months earlier."
