This wasn't technically in our backyard, but it was in the general vicinity at a local park. It was on a trail and almost got stepped on but we moved it to safety.

Welcome to my backyard. This blog is about the wildlife that lives and travels through our yard in suburban Northern Virginia. The yard borders a park and has a small, man-made pond. Foxes have used the space under our deck as a den for their babies. Raccoons like to raid our compost bins, and green frogs produce tadpoles in our pond each spring. We also have deer, chipmunks, squirrels, birds, a shrew, a toad, a snake, a turtle, and even a bat.

It's so tiny! Once I was in the car with my uncle when we saw a huge turtle in the middle of the street. He stopped the car to move it but said it was a snapping turtle so he couldn't touch it directly or it would bite him. He wrapped it in a plastic bag and moved it.
