Great Pictures! Interesting how the turtle is laying eggs in your backyard. Is that a common occurence for you?
Meg, I live next to a marsh. Every June, several turtles come on the lawn and attempt to lay their eggs. If the lawn is very dry and hard, they try and then move on. If the soil is soft they have better luck. I have never seen any turtles hatch on the lawn.
