This is not the first time that I saw turtles on the road in our neighborhood or in Florida for that matter. Motorists usually stopped and let this precious creature pass by. Even when we were in Mississippi, one time a motorist stop on the side of the busy road while others tried to help the traffic and pick up a huge turtle on the road. It stopped in the middle of the road and hid on its shell probably nervous LOL. Good thing it happened on a country road where everyone is not really in a hurry. I just admire people who have the compassion to animals like this one. CUTE!

As you can see, this turtle is not walking slow LOL. He runs!~ See the glide? That's a huge step hahaha. It took me 3 shots only and he is off to the other side of the road. That was really quick! Now, who says turtles are slow LOL ?
Beyond the fence is the Space Coast Regional Airport ... hmmm ... I wonder if he has a flight to catch? LOL

Few cars pass this area that is why; I got the chance to take these photos. In fact, there were only us and one car which was ahead of us. It is exciting to see animals on the wild. Thanks for stopping by.
Guess that turtle knows about those fast moving things that belch smoke and knows better then to dawdle! Smart turtle!! He really appeared to be moving quite quickly for a turtle!
