A worm for breakfast

Castlewood StatePark, Missouri view map

This box turtle was very obliging - not only did he not retreat into his shell as I came in for this close up, but he kept perfectly still for this 15 second exposure. Maybe he was not awake yet, as it was just before dawn.

Good shot, especially for a 15 sec. exposure.

I think it takes 30 seconds for a turtles brain to register a thought :>) Great capture, Robert.
