resurrecting this,
The season is March to September. Is the first week in March being too optimistic to see some?
Visiting and my wife has never seen them, would be a great experience.

Leave the turtle alone

hoss if you don't want to go , feel free to relax home. This is why I'm going with an approved group that knows how to behave around them and won't add stress. If they stay stand 100 feet back then so be it.

Natureseekers has gotten back to me if anyone else is interested try their fb page. Having grown up in the country I have a health respect for animals. If you believe in something youth then do something, it's easy to type. Grow a pair and get involved, but pick a side.
