I saw the oddest thing while driving to a grocery store in North Carolina.
A man had parked his truck in a field.
Maybe it was his field, maybe it wasn't.
He was walking alongside an enormous tortoise.
Maybe it was his tortoise, maybe is wasn't.
It occurred to me that I have only seen tortoises at a zoo or on television.
And I think the ones on television were at a zoo too.
Oh how I wished I'd had my camera with me!
I'll be paying close attention while walking outside in case there has been a tortoise takeover near Calabash, North Carolina.
Have you seen surprising wildlife nearby?
