Baby Painted Turtle - Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lake Shore - Maple City, MI - Turtle Crossings on Waymarking.com

While visiting Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lake Shore (and walking to an EarthCache), we were amazed to see this very young painted turtle attempting to cross a road. We've never seen a turtle this young in the wild before.

Helped it to cross the road, and hoped the youngster found its way to its mother.

Visit Instructions:
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."
