I'm always happy to see them in the water or on the beach, but I don't have an explanation for why they seem so compelling. Maybe, as Daisy said, it's because they look wise and friendly -- certainly they never seem threatening.<BR/><BR/>BobbieBNShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10709074385552082635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9067507179347221008.post-5361220653825352992008-06-30T06:09:00.000-10:002008-06-30T06:09:00.000-10:00Where does our fascination for the turtles come from?

I have a turtle to post for Photo Hunters tomorrow. However, the turtle is in an aquarium at Coney Island, NY. I'm glad you liked the "chapeau" as you call it on my ballerina. I think it looks like a bathing cap from years ago!
