6/3/2006: Tortoise as healer

Cool. Today, my son and I were walking along the railroad tracks and he noticed a turtle next to the tracks that was clearly out of his element. There is no water nearby so I'm not sure what he was doing there and was pretty sure he would not have survived very long there.

We picked him up and took him home and put him next to a large pond in our backyard. He scurried towards the water and crawled in and just stayed there for a minute. Then he poked his head out, looked at us for a second or two then scurried off towards the underbrush.
