Taken recently at Flick Park - this seemed the spot for all the turtles - there are 3 in here and I could see more behind these guys.

They are leaving Chicago for warmer L.A. and plan to arrive there in about 234 years. Nice close-up of the turtles on the march (at least that is what it looks) Kathy.

I really don't like turtles. I have a pond and they ruin fishing. But, good capture of these.

Kathy, I can't agree with my friend Raj's comment above about the duration of their journey (LOL!!!!!) as these are sophisticated turtles. They are leaving for LA by plane (business class of course). Their check-in was the only that was time consuming because their luggage was still underway.

Very fine and to a certain extent funny image. Btw: I've still a grin on my face!

The do-drop-Inn for turtles, Kathy. Just looking for a little shade and perhaps a pond to skinny-dip in. Well done.

Looks like you crawled under with them to get this shot and it was well worth the effort..

I've driven through LA. I lived in Orange County (Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm) right after I left Illinois. The 12 lane freeways down there move slower than your turtle parking lot.

It could be this migraine, but it looks the DOF is slightly off as the near leaves seem more sharply focused. Then again, I can barely see my hand tonight; so that comment is the equivalent of a shot in the dark.

No jokes tonight. Sorry.

Fantastic shot and Raj's comment made me laugh. I just love turtles and they are enjoying their favorite spot I'm guessing
