as i'm moving back out west, i wanted to get an eastern box turtle 'fix' before i left to return to the luteolas. saw 8 of them on the prowl today in northern VA. including a little juvenile and a male whom i first found a few weeks ago. also saw one smashed on the road. that is always heartbreaking. i know that bucketloads get smashed on the roads here, at least out west one doesnt see many roadkilled turtles. now snakes, thats another matter....
