What Are You Looking At?

When Tracy and I went to Stow Lake two weekends ago, it was a lovely day. The turtles were out sunning themselves. Some would jump off their logs if I got too close, so I mostly shot them from a distance with my little telephoto. But this guy, he was not intimidated. I was able to get quite close to him. He looked at me, but had no intention of leaving his prime sun spot. I liked his attitude.

Picture has had a little bit cropped off at the bottom.
