The pond behind our house is full of wildlife. We have birds and ducks and the fish jump every night. I spotted some new friends in the turtles. They like to warm in the sun and float in the water with their heads sticking out. I was able to feed one of the turtles some bread. They are very cautious so you must be still.

I like the fact that we have so many things living in our yard. I hope to teach the kids about the value of wildlife and the beauty of nature. Watching these beautiful creatures is a great way to do just that! I am glad to welcome my new friends the turtles!
