huge soft shelled turtle | |
Resting in the middle of the dock, a huge soft-shelled turtle eyes you. | |
This huge soft-shelled turtle is obviously the antediluvian of the pond turtles. His shell has hardened with age to a crusty jagged mass on his back and its color has been faded to a deep greyish green. Spending most of his hours lazily watching the other turtles, frogs, and fish swim in the pond, this turtle has lived his life and now he seems content with waiting for it to end. A huge soft-shelled turtle is in an excellent condition. | |
