Rain Creek Farm In this picture you can see the hinge in her lower shell (straight line up and down is the movable plastron hinge). She can pull her head and legs in and close the lower shell tight against the upper shell (hence the name 'box turtle"). You can also see three toes on the hind feet that identify this subspecies of Eastern Box Turtle. (06.15.04) [Olympus C-5050] |
