Yard Critter of the Week - Three-toed Box Turtle

Magnus, our Three-toed Box Turtle.

As you can see, he or she is covered in dried mud, having just dug out form a long winters sleep. It was in the high 80s °F here the past few days, although we'll be returning to more seasonable temperatures in the days ahead.

Magnus has been featured on this blog before, including this post that tells the backstory of how Patty acquired Magnus as a tiny turtle.
