This morning's six o'clock walk.
__Spurred by a common curiosity, though perhaps for different reasons... I, and a Snapping Turtle... traveled the shoreline. Its head continually bobbing below, then above the 'top-water.'

such a beautiful image through your words, bravo Doug
I thank you both, John and Lorraine; but LL, those 'Snappers' can be considered 'pretty ugly.'
Lovely haiku again:)
The image reminds me of a stroll by a river I took in England. There was a majestic looking white swan who shadowed me for longest time. I didn't know if it wanted food, or just a jogging companion.
I have had a yellow warbler follow me in the woods, but never a turtle.
From growing up around animals, I know that other creatures are as curious as humans.
Nice poem!
inquisitive!
